Citadel Intelligent Systems: Driving Better Connectedness with Robust Optical Fiber Interconnectivity Solutions

CIO Vendor The amount of overwhelming data and recent government initiatives in India are creating massive opportunities for advancing technologies to transport this data. There is great demand for higher bandwidth to support the transmission of data, voice and video in a quick, efficient and reliable manner. Optical Fiber Cables (OFC) and Fiber Optic (FO) Interconnectivity is bringing a paradigm shift in this sector as they are engineered to support higher bandwidth, assure better signal strength and uniform speeds in transmission while simultaneously eliminating any latency issues in networks. High quality of fiber optic interconnectivity products can be achieved from increased density of fiber optics within the networks. This need for faster and reliable networks applies significant pressure on fiber optic interconnectivity product vendors to ensure superior quality standards in its manufacturing infrastructure, systems, processes and product designs, executed by a team of certified professionals that possess the ability to meet each unique customer requirements of the interconnectivity products.

Perfectly poised in this market is Citadel Intelligent Systems, headquartered in Bangalore, with its robust and comprehensive suite of customer-centric fiber optic interconnectivity solutions designed and developed for enterprise and telecom networks, smart cities, security and surveillance systems, and harsh environments. The company manufactures Single Fiber and Multi Fiber Connectivity products and Ruggedized Fiber Optic assemblies for harsh environment applications. In addition to this, CIS also manufactures and assembles value-added Fiber management systems. “We have a manufacturing facility in Bangalore that began its operations two years back. Recently, we launched another engineering and
manufacturing centre in Mumbai. We have our own engineering department where we design and customize the products for Indian and international markets,” informs KK Shetty, Managing Director at Citadel Intelligent Systems.

The team creates product designs and manufactures value added Fiber optic assemblies unlike vendors competing in this market that just sell its products. “Our uniqueness lies in our customization. Our strength is to customize based on the need of the customer. It is because of this approach we are reasonably successful,” says KK Shetty. Reinforcing its current market position, CIS has forged a strategic alliance with global fiber optic giant AFL with the aim to produce fiber optic cable for data centres and other industries.
