Total Cable Solutions (TCS) announced that it has acquired Optica Technologies’ Fiber Services business line. Effective immediately, Optica will refer all data center fiber-optic cabling, component and services business opportunities directly to TCS.
TCS has been a supplier to Optica for several years, and says the acquisition provides it with access to a new set of enterprise data center partners and customers. The company says the acquisition also accelerates its growing structured cabling business.
“TCS is very excited about the new strategic relationship with Optica," comments Charles Hoskins, owner and director of operations at TCS. "We are looking to continue our rapid growth and this investment allows us to offer additional capabilities to all of our current and future customers.”
“The TCS [acquisition] ensures that our partners’ and customers’ fiber services needs are fully met while we increase our focus on being the leading provider of mainframe connectivity solutions for IBM System z customers,” adds Michael Dailey, COO and VP of worldwide sales at Optica Technologies.
