BACKPLANE CONNECTORS MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

Global backplane connectors market size was estimated at USD 2.36 billion in 2024, set to expand to USD 4.2 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6.65% during the forecast period.

The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.An electronic device's connector backplane is a printed circuit board (PCB) to which multiple daughter cards or modules are connected. The different spaces for daughter cards in the device are often supported mechanically and electrically by a backplane. Applications in computing, telecommunication, and industrial electronics frequently use connector backplanes.

Several factors, including the rising need for high-density interconnects in data centers, the increasing demand for miniaturization in consumer electronics, and the rising adoption of cutting-edge innovations in armed services & aerospace applications, are contributing to the expansion of the worldwide connector backplane industry. Additionally, it is projected that industry participants active in the worldwide connector backplane market will benefit significantly from the development of the Internet of Things (IoT).

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Closing Of Manufacturing Units And Shortage Of Labor Lead To Decrease In Demand For Connectors"

Worldwide, the COVID-19 epidemic had significantly disrupted both rich and developing economies. The industrial growth was hampered in the medium term by the slowing global economy along with reduced GDP of largest markets during the first half of FY2020 owing to the pandemic. The deployment of these units were hampered by the closure of manufacturing facilities and a labor shortage. Despite the slump in the economy, things had a turn around by the final quarter of FY2020, when the lockdown was lifted and manufacturing operations resumed. Thus these factors lead to the loss of demand and sales of the backplane connectors during the pandemic.
