Fiber installation
- Single-Mode Fiber InstallationInstalling OS2 single-mode fiber for longer-distance connections, high-capacity network backbones, and connectivity between buildings.
- Multimode Fiber InstallationInstalling OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber for compatible high-speed connections inside buildings, network rooms, and equipment facilities.
- Fiber Backbone CablingConnecting main distribution frames (MDFs), intermediate distribution frames (IDFs), server rooms, and network equipment across floors or departments.
- Building-to-Building FiberEstablishing reliable connections between separate buildings, warehouses, offices, and facilities using appropriately rated fiber and protected pathways.
Fiber termination, testing & maintenance
- Fiber Optic Fusion SplicingPermanently joining optical fibers using precision fusion-splicing equipment to create low-loss connections for new installations, extensions, and repairs.
- Fiber Termination & Patch PanelsInstalling fiber enclosures, patch panels, adapters, connectors, and splice trays for organized and serviceable fiber connectivity.
- Fiber Testing & CertificationEvaluating fiber connections using optical loss testing and, where appropriate, OTDR testing to identify faults and verify installed-link performance.
- Fiber Repair & TroubleshootingLocating damaged cables, investigating excessive signal loss, replacing faulty connections, and restoring fiber links affected by damage or installation problems.
