Bielefeld, xx.10.2023 With a total of only 8.1 percent fiber optic connections last year, Germany is far behind the global average (35.9 percent). On the other hand, the country is currently investing the most in fiber optic expansion in Europe. In order to meet the high demand, many companies have to intensively train their skilled workers and equip them so that they can cleanly install fiber optics even with different background knowledge. EFB-Elektronik, network specialist for structured IT infrastructure, supports this process with a new info page: the „Five Ways of Fiber Optic Cabling“ show solutions for every initial situation.

"Not all specialists in the industry are also experts in fiber optics," says Alexander Müller, Category Owner Fiber Optic Cabling at EFB-Elektronik. "On our website, we provide an overview of which paths lead to the goal for different levels of prior knowledge - along with the associated product range." At the heart of fiber optic installation is usually the splicing process, but this is time-consuming and technically demanding. That's why it can make sense to rely on pre-terminated trunk cables. Installers therefore have a choice - depending on their specialization - of five different approaches between splicing and preassembled trunk cables:
