Optical Cable Corp

Optical Cable Corp

Optical Cable Corp (OCC) is a small-cap manufacturer and supplier of fibre-optic cables, connectivity components and network solutions used by telecoms, data centres and enterprise networks. With a market capitalisation of about $75.4m, the company operates in a capital-intensive, competitive part of the communications infrastructure supply chain. Investors should know OCC’s fortunes are linked to telecom capital expenditure cycles, fibre rollouts and demand for high‑capacity networking; these can provide opportunities but also make revenues lumpy. As a smaller listed company, OCC may have lower liquidity, greater share-price volatility and higher execution risk than larger peers. Financial strength, backlog, contract wins and margin trends are key metrics to monitor. This summary is for educational purposes only and not personal investment advice — do your own research and consider suitability, diversification and the risks of small-cap investing before acting.
