Global Laser Communications Terminals (LCTs) Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Laser Communications Terminals (LCTs) market size was valued at US$ 135 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 2067 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 43.9% during review period.

Laser communication technology combines the advantages of radio communication and optical fiber communication, and uses laser as carrier to communicate. Laser communication technology has the advantages of strong anti-interference ability, high security, high communication rate, fast transmission speed, convenient band selection and large information capacity. It is characterized by small size, light weight, low power consumption, simple construction, flexible maneuvering, and has great strategic needs and application value in military and civil fields. Space laser communication technology can be used as an emergency communication scheme in the fields of earthquake relief, emergency, anti-terrorism, public security investigation and so on. In particular, space laser communication technology can provide military confidential information services for joint attack and defense of multiple weapons, and has outstanding advantages in local war, battlefield networking and information confrontation. In addition, due to the advantages of high bandwidth, fast and convenient transmission and low cost, space laser communication technology is the best choice to solve the transmission of small and micro base stations of the "last kilometer" and the fifth generation mobile communication technology (5g). The integrated information network project of China and earth is an important construction project to implement "without network security, there is no national security", including broadband backbone network and access network of space network. However, it is difficult to meet the maximum transmission broadband of 40-100 GB / s due to traditional microwave satellite communication mode The demand of the space laser network is urgently needed to support this major project.

On a global scale, the core manufacturers of laser communication terminals (LCT) mainly include Mynaric AG, TESAT Spacecom, Thales Alenia Space, Ball Aerospace, CACI (SA Photonics), General Atomics, Space Micro, Honeywell International, and Skyroom. The top three global manufacturers collectively hold over 28% of the market share.

From the perspective of product types, Space Terminal occupy an important position with a share of 60%. At the same time, in terms of downstream, Civil is the largest downstream field with a share of 53%.
