Summary of our market study
In 2023, sales of cable manufacturers in France were €3.5 billion. Over 50% of production is exported
The global connector industry is expanding and is estimated to be worth between $65 and $85 billion, with China, the United States and Europe being the main producing countries. The market is driven by growth in the electrical and communications cables, aeronautics and automotive sectors, which together account for 85% of the market.
Connectors account for 25% of the total electronic components market.
France occupies an important place in Europe, with a market for electrical and communication wires and cables driven by the energy, automotive, aerospace and defense cable sectors, as well as fiber optics. The national rollout of the fiber optic network has put France in a leading position in Europe for high-speed domestic connections.
The main players in the French market are Nexans, Prysmian Cables and Silec Cable. The total number of companies in the connectivity sector has been on a downward trend until a recent upturn fueled by an increase in the number of companies manufacturing fiber optic cables.

Summary and extracts
1 Market overview
1.1 Presentation and definition of the market
The market for electrical and communication cables includes the sale of all the articles of electrotechnical physical connections and electronics (card connectors) as well as data connection industrialists This study therefore excludes small cables for personal and domestic use, such as microcomputer products (motherboards, external connectors), audio, video and telecommunications transmission connectors, as well as plugs, chargers and other small connectors. In order to avoid the multiplication of cables, systems such as WIFI for the Internet or Bluetooth for data transmission have appeared since the early 2000s: this weakens the market while new technologies such as the optic fibre are helping to revitalize it. Connectics thus brings together technologies related to physical connections between devices as well as data transmission and is at the border of several disciplines such as plastics processing, chemistry, mechanics and electronics.
The connector market is thus a segment of the more global market of electronic components The latter mainly concerns the industrial, automotive and aerospace markets, which are its three main outlets. In 2017, connectors and cables accounted for 25% of the electronic components market. [ Ministry of Economy and Finance ]
Today, connectors are used in almost all equipment and systems for the efficient operation of peripherals in the home and office. With the technology upgrades as a result, connectors are increasingly being designed for versatile and long-term use. The latest trend that is gaining momentum in the market is the increasing adoption of automotive electronics . The increasing use of connectors in various automotive electronic devices such as navigation, steering, brakes and cruise control is expected to be a new trend in the connector market. Finally, developments in the construction in France and the investment trends of electricity and telecommunications operators are important determinants of the market.
