As demand for higher bandwidth and network speed continue to rise, service providers need much more bandwidth than the current GPON technology can provide. Gen Z, millennials, and even Gen Xers are keen on video streaming and sharing videos. With the popularity of TikTok, Reels from Instagram, and Twitch, these applications require higher bandwidth applications and capacity. As of February 2021, connected devices in homes are growing rapidly. These devices include connected TVs, streaming media players, Blu-ray disc players, video game consoles, laptops, desktops, tablets, and smartphones. According to Cisco, nearly two-thirds of the global population will have Internet access by 2023. There will be 5.3 billion total Internet users (66 percent of global population) by 2023, up from 3.9 billion (51 percent of the global population) in 2018.
