What equipment do fiber optic contractors need?
Essential equipment includes a fusion splicer (Fujikura, Sumitomo, or Furukawa), an OTDR (EXFO, Viavi, or Fluke), fiber strippers, cleavers, a power meter, and safety gear. Many contractors also need bucket trucks or splicing trailers for aerial and OSP work.
What is the BEAD program and how does it affect fiber jobs?
The BEAD (Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment) program is a $42.45 billion federal initiative to deploy high-speed internet to unserved areas. It is creating thousands of fiber optic subcontractor jobs across rural America, with projects expected to run through 2030.
