More Info on AFL

AFL connects people and solutions to the communities we serve.

We manufacture, engineer and install the fiber optic products and equipment that communications providers need to provide quad-play solutions to their customers. Our extensive experience in both design and application crosses all markets, from Telco, Broadband and Wireless, to Electric Utility, OEM, Enterprise and Private Networks, among others.

Technology advancements are fueling unprecedented growth of fiber optic equipment. From lasers for use in manufacturing facilities and improvements to broadband infrastructure to more sophisticated medical processes and sensing, monitoring and security applications, the need for suppliers that understand the intricacies of the fiber optic cable, components and related equipment is critical for success.

When it comes to technology leadership in the fiber optic arena, AFL is at the forefront. As a subsidiary of fiber optic giant Fujikura, AFL is a trusted source for products that deliver repeatable and consistent solutions for active and passive optical, electrical and mechanical applications.
