Training: — Hands-on courses in splicing, jointing, testing, termination, cleaning, inspection and fault-finding. You leave our courses able to do the job, not just describe it.

Equipment hire: — Fusion splicers, cleavers, OTDRs, launch leads, light sources and power meters, ready when a job comes in — no capital outlay for a one-off contract.
Testing equipment: OTDR testers, power meters, loss test sets, fault locators and inspection tools, picked for the job you’re actually doing, not the most expensive option on the shelf.
Fusion splicing kit: Splicers and cleavers built for singlemode and multimode work, built for quality and ease of use the Fujikura and Swift ALL-IN-ONE splicers give better results and reliability.
Servicing and support: When a splicer’s giving inconsistent results or an OTDR trace doesn’t make sense, we help you work out why — not just sell you a replacement.
Bespoke solutions: Tailored training and consultancy for telecoms, datacomm, renewables, oil & gas, FTTH, Control systems, Aerospace and network installation projects.

Ideal for engineers, installers and businesses bringing fibre work-in-house.

Fibre Optic Training That Gets You Job-Ready

Our three-day Fibre Optic Training course (OP-456-61) covers the skills you’ll actually use on site: completing patch panels, wall boxes and node joints; testing with OTDRs, light sources and power meters; cleaning and inspecting connectors; and troubleshooting the faults that come up again and again in real installs.

Find the Right Fibre Optic Products and Equipment

We can help you choose the best testing and splicing equipment, the best and most cost effective cleaning and inspection tools. We will show you hire options and the best joints and passive components for the job. If you are unsure what you need, Opticus will tell you what to consider and show you the options.

Not Sure What Equipment You Need?

Wrong tester for the job wastes time and money. We’ll walk you through what actually matters for your project — cable type, run length, budget, one-off vs ongoing use — and point you to gear that fits, including hire options if buying doesn’t make sense yet.
