Fiber Optic Center stocks a wide range of fiber-related and other high technology items.
Like many companies that thrive over a number of years, we have carved out several areas of specialization and expertise for which we are known as the industry leader.
Many catalog items can be purchased from other suppliers, but a number of important factors make us the preferred choice for many of the world’s fiber professionals.
These include, but are not limited to:
Industry-leading customer service aimed at making the business part of high tech as friendly and painless as possible in part by stocking all the items you need for cable assembly production.
Not only do we partner with our customers, we partner with our manufacturers. Our prices should never be higher than them; doing business with us should never cost you more. In purchasing through FOC you pay the same, but gain invaluable on-site and remote technical and customer support. You gain another partner.
For Over 34 years we’ve been locating components, materials, equipment and supplies; We know what is available and where to get it, even if it’s not already a stock item. Let us be your sourcing partner.
Our tenacious emphasis of offering only the highest quality products that have superior value, as opposed to selling lesser quality, cheaper alternatives and knock-offs, which, more likely than not, result in a greater need for reworks, missed delivery schedules, repair/upkeep costs, etc.
We offer the most advanced suite of fully automated and semi-automated polishing and termination equipment for fiber and cables, much of it (such as the Sagitta Comet and Phenix Optix Fibersect) available exclusively from Fiber Optic Center.
We have the world’s largest inventory of custom-hole-size SMA and other connectors, for use with large core fiber, with over 40 different hole sizes in stock.
Decades of practical cable assembly production experience by our technical experts who work daily with our customers improving their processes. We do not produce cable assemblies in-house, although our traveling technical personnel have set up termination lines throughout North, Central and South America, as well as several locations in the Far East, Eastern and Western Europe, the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Availability of adhesives, and specialty and optical monomers, oligomers, and polymers, in custom viscosities, colors, packaging and other features.
