Interview
At Connected America this year, we caught up with Jeff Harsh, Director of Strategic Accounts at UCL Swift North America, to discuss the company’s all-in-one fusion splicing platform and the company’s plans for the future
With a historic level of government funding being delivered to help fund broadband access for all Americans, the US fibre market has never been more exciting.
At Connected America this year, we spoke to UCL Swift’s Jeff Harsh to learn more about the company’s fusion splicing solution and how its ease of use is helping to overcome the skilled labour shortage that comes with the nation’s rapidly accelerating network deployment.
“We can splice, we can cleave, we can strip, and we can also protect the fibre by putting a fibre sleave on. And these machines are easy to use, they are lightweight and easy to train people on,” he explained. “It’s a high tech, high precision machine, but a very simple process. We believe we can be part of the solution [to the skills shortage issue] by fast-tracking training.”
