Fiber Optic Cabling
Fiber Optic Cabling
Fast, reliable, and scalable connectivity starts with fiber. Axiom Solutions designs, installs, and maintains fiber optic cabling systems that keep your network performing at its best for today and tomorrow.
Overview
Fiber optics form the backbone of today’s communication networks. They offer unmatched data capacity, longer transmission distances, and resistance to electromagnetic interference, making them the clear choice for performance and future growth.
At Axiom, we provide single-mode and multi-mode fiber optic cabling solutions for:
- Data networks and data centers
- Telecommunications and VoIP systems
- Physical security and surveillance systems
- Audio/Video and broadcast environments
Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or building from the ground up, Axiom delivers high-performance systems that meet ANSI/TIA-568, ISO/IEC 11801, and NEC standards.

Fiber vs. Copper Comparison
Fiber vs. Copper
Both fiber and copper have their place in modern networks, but understanding their strengths helps determine the right solution for your environment.
| Feature | Fiber Optic Cabling | Copper Cabling |
|---|---|---|
| Speed & Bandwidth | Supports multi-gigabit to terabit speeds | Up to 40 Gbps depending on category |
| Distance | Up to several kilometers | Limited to ~100 meters per segment |
| Interference | Immune to EMI and RFI | Susceptible to electrical interference |
| Security | More difficult to tap | Easier to compromise |
| Durability | Resistant to environmental changes | More affected by temperature and corrosion |
Axiom designs hybrid infrastructures that combine both by leveraging fiber’s long-range performance with copper’s cost-effectiveness for local connections.
