Here’s What FiberOptic.com’s Customer’s are Saying…

“My experience with the rental of an OTDR from your company allowed us to perform the duties necessary to get the job done. The equipment worked great. When software problems arose, Liz jumped right on the situation. I give your company a 10 based on quick response to our needs, rapid delivery of the product, and technical expertise.”

Charles Clark-President Telcomtex Communications, Inc. San Antonio TX

“FTTH Communications is a company using splicers for all mainline situations. I found Dwayne to be really easy to work with. He offered many different financial options making it possible for us to consider your splicer. There was a great open line of communication as well as product delivery in a timely manner. We will definitely come back to Fiberoptic.com when we need more equipment.”

FiberOptic.com - Free Fiber Characterization Web Seminar

Free Fiber Characterization Web Seminar
You are invited to participate in a free web-based seminar on Fiber Characterization for High Speed Networks, presented by Agilent Technologies – Friday, March 4th, 11 a.m. EST (8 a.m. PST).

FiberOptic.com is always interested in keeping our customers abreast of the latest developments in test instruments. As an authorized distributor of Agilent Technologies, FiberOptic.com along with Agilent invite you to take part in this free presentation.

Sign-up today by sending email to sales@fiberoptic.com or calling 877.529.9114 x.112

Seminar Topics:
If you are designing, installing or maintaining networks beyond 2.5G including SONET or Ethernet at 10G and 40G speeds, complete and accurate fiber characterization is necessary. There is a lack of understanding and confusion over what fiber measurements are necessary as well as fiber dispersion causes and effects.

In 45 minutes, the presentation will cover key characterization measurements necessary for certifying fiber for operation at 10 and 40G.

  • Fiber characterization measurements for 10G and beyond transmission
  • Understanding Dispersion and other measurements
  • Where to get more information on fiber characterization and solutions

A question and answer period at the end of the session with on line experts concludes the seminar.


The web conference and dial in call is free, but space is limited. Register today by replying to this email – sales@fiberoptic.com or call 877.529.9114 x.112.

FiberOptic.com - Sumitomo Type-25 fusion splicer

Sumitomo Tomcat Splicers
Sumitomo’s TomCat splicers, available at www.FiberOptic.com, are the industry’s first “full-featured” hand-held fiber splicers offering both the agility and the robustness required for FTTx, premise and optical component assembly applications. Easy-to-use, easy-to-learn, these portable battery-operated splicers reduce training time for efficient deployments – making fusion splicing the choice for both optimum reliability and affordability.

Included in the “full-featured” distinction of the TomCat splicers are adjustable position monitors that allow the user to observe the fiber during the splicing process. Their front-to-back workflow makes the splicers ideal when limited fiber slack is available, in arieal taut-sheath applications, and for component testing. Sumitomo’s fiber holder system facilitates quick and easy fiber preparation and placement.

TomCat Splicers are available in the following part numbers: Type 25U (single fiber splicer with no splice loss estimation), T-25S (single fiber splicer with splice loss estimation) and the T-25M (mass splicer up to 4 fiber ribbon).
