Fibre Optic Cable Installation and Fusion Splicing Services

Professional Fibre Optic Installation, Fibre Optic Splicing, termination, and testing of multi-mode OM1-OM4 and single-mode OS1-OS2 fibre optic cables in Hertfordshire, London and the South East UK.

Fibre Optic Fusion Splicing

Fiber optic splicing is the process of joining two fiber optic cables together to create a continuous optical path for light signals to travel through. This is a critical technique in telecommunications, internet infrastructure, and other industries that rely on high-speed data transmission. There are two main methods of fiber optic splicing:

Fusion Splicing: The ends of two fiber optic cables are precisely aligned and then melted (fused) together using an electric arc. This is done with a specialized machine called a fusion splicer.

Mechanical Splicing: 
The fiber ends are aligned and held together using a sleeve or clamp, often with an index-matching gel to reduce signal loss. No melting is involved.

We provide professional ON-Site services for fusion splicing, termination, jointing and testing of multi-mode OM1-OM4 and single-mode OS1-OS2 fibre optic cables.

Fibre Optic Cable Installation

Fiber optic cables are communication cables that utilise ultra-thin strands of glass or plastic, known as optical fibers, to transmit data in the form of light pulses. These cables have become a foundational element of modern telecommunications, delivering unparalleled speed, bandwidth, and reliability when compared to conventional copper-based alternatives. Their ability to carry vast amounts of data over long distances with minimal loss makes them indispensable in today’s interconnected world. Whether you’re outfitting a commercial building with complex networking needs or tackling a smaller project requiring high-speed internet, fiber optic cables offer a versatile and robust solution. We provide cable installation, termination, splicing and testing of multi-mode OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4 and single-mode OS1 and OS2 fibre optic cables, including maintenance and repairs on damaged, cut and blown cables. 

We undertake fibre optic works throughout London, Hertfordshire, Middlesex, Surrey and Essex.

Fibre Optic Cable Types:

Fibre Optic Cables are capable of transmitting data at different speeds and over varying distances, depending on their size. There are two types of fibre optic cables available - Multimode (OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4) and Single-mode (OS1, OS2). The table below lists the maximum run lengths and GBPS speeds for each type of Fibre Optic Cable.
CABLE TYPE 100MB 1GBPS 10GBPS 40GBPS 100GBPS
OM1  2000m  275m 33m x  x
OM2  2000m  550m 82m x  x
OM3  2000m  800m 300m 100m 100m
