If you’ve got a copper cabinet, we can retrofit it to a fiber distribution hub.

If you’ve got a copper cabinet, we can retrofit it to a fiber distribution hub.

Copper to fiber migration for any configuration, almost any cabinet, anywhere.

Upgrade to a future-ready network, support GPON capabilities, and bring fiber to the people faster with innovative Retrofit Fiber Panels available exclusively from Corning. Our new outside plant (OSP) solution lets you convert almost any existing copper cross-connect cabinets to fiber, on pedestals, in manholes, or on poles – in as little as 20 minutes. And, since there are no changes to the outside of your cabinet, the copper to fiber migration is completely discrete and won’t require new permitting from your city, state, HOA, or civil works.
