On fundamentals, domestic G.652.D single-mode fiber prices have surged from below RMB 20 per fiber-km in early last year to approximately RMB 83.4 per fiber-km by March, representing cumulative gains exceeding 400%. Institutions note that optical preform capacity expansion lags behind fiber demand, while AI data center buildouts, overseas telecom recovery, and emerging applications create overlapping demand drivers.
