Fiber Optic Cabling Systems
HICOM provides comprehensive fiber optic cabling solutions, specializing in the design, installation, and maintenance of high-performance systems. Our expertise spans OM3/OM4 multi-mode fiber, OS1 single-mode fiber, and legacy 62.5 multi-mode fiber, supporting a wide range of applications, including fiber-to-the-desktop, network/backbone distribution, high-rise deployments, and more. We offer advanced solutions like MPOE, MPOP, and DMARC extensions for OC1/OC3 and fast Ethernet deployments.Types of Fiber Optic Connectors
HICOM offers a complete range of fiber optic connector solutions to meet your diverse network needs. We stock and install all types of connectors, including:- LC connectors: These small form-factor connectors are the industry standard for modern high-speed networking, commonly used with GBICs and fiber optic interfaces from leading manufacturers like Cisco, NetGear, and HP.
- SC connectors: While SC/UPC connectors represent an older technology, they remain widely deployed. SC/APC connectors are often preferred for video broadcast, CCTV, and CTV applications due to their superior optical performance.
- ST connectors: These legacy connectors continue to be used in various industrial applications, security systems, PLCs, and equipment cabinet connections
Fiber Optic Testing
HICOM's certified technicians meticulously test every fiber optic installation using advanced OTDR technology. This comprehensive testing process verifies network performance, identifies potential problems, and provides detailed documentation, including cable length, attenuation, and losses. Our expertise in OTDR analysis allows us to quickly diagnose and resolve network issues, such as breaks, high return loss, and refraction, minimizing downtime and ensuring optimal network performance.
