Fiber Optic Center

Fiber Optic Center Stocking Distributor of Fiber Optic Products, Equipment and Supplies FOC develops & stocks a wide range of fiber-related & high-tech items.

Some of these can be purchased from others. However, important factors differentiate FOC as the preferred supplier for the world's fiber professionals. FOC offers only the highest quality for superior value over the life of the product. We avoid low quality, cheap alternatives since they often result in added costs, rebuilds & missed deliveries. FOC offers the most advanced suite of automated poli

shing & termination equipment for fiber & cables. Our technical experts have decades of production experience, having set up & managed cable assembly manufacturing operations in U.S., Mexico & China. They travel continuously to customer sites worldwide, installing equipment, training personnel & optimizing processes. We do not produce assemblies; we concentrate on helping our customers to do that. We have over 30 years’ experience sourcing components, equipment & supplies. We know what is available, what works, & where to get it. FOC has the world’s largest inventory of custom-hole-size SMA & other connectors.
20+ years of service as the NA sales agent for SG Controls, the leading manufacturer of fiber-making systems, makes FOC one of the few global companies providing full turnkey optical fiber manufacturing for both specialty & standard fibers. We greatly appreciate the chance to be of service, and hope that you will consider contacting us for your FO needs.
