How does metallic demand for connectivity applications advance?
About This Webcast
Join the Webinar Data centres are reshaping metallic conductor demand across power distribution, cooling and data transmission layers, but the scale and composition of that demand will depend heavily on how AI utilisation evolves, how power densities rise, and which architectural approaches win out over the next decade. This webinar will present CRU's expanded research into the metallic conductor requirements of data centre connectivity, covering demand by application layer and conductor type, multiple long-term scenarios tied to AI growth and next-generation design trends, and what the outlook means for wire & cable producers, copper and aluminium suppliers, data centre developers and investors.
