Optical Cable: OFS offers a broad range of fiber optic cables to meet customers' needs for their applications. Our portfolio includes drop, loose tube and central tube cables designed to reduce installation costs for FTTx and Outside Plant applications as well as an innovative line of cables and cordage for the premises applications. All of OFS cables are manufactured with leading edge OFS optical fibers inside.

Optical Connectivity: OFS provides the products and components that connect and manage optical fiber for emerging applications such as FTTx and Data Storage, as well as Network Equipment Manufacturers and the traditional Enterprise and Telco market spaces.

Optical Fiber: OFS designs and manufactures high performance fibers offering superior performance and reliability. Working with our global cable partners, OFS helps end-users to reach increased capacity for video, voice and data transmission. The industry's benchmark full spectrum fiber, AllWave® Zero Water Peak (ZWP) fiber, offers increased bandwidth and capacity and the lowest loss in metro/access applications. LaserWave® laser-optimized multimode fiber is designed for premises applications up to 10 Gb/s for distances to 550 meters and beyond.

Its leading Access ADVANTAGETM System is a high performance FTTx solution that supports high-speed Internet, HDTV, voice, online gaming, home security, and other revenue-generating services. Our company also helps service providers, home developers, telecommunication companies, municipalities, and other network owners and operators identify optical network designs that fit their unique needs with its recently introduced OptiCostTM FTTx Modeling services.
