Cable repair at MCAP refers to the professional inspection and restoration of damaged cabling, including fibre optic and other specialised cables, so they can be used again. The process includes visual inspection, testing with specialised equipment, and repairing the affected section before testing the cable to ensure it meets quality expectations.

Have a damaged copper cable repaired
The contacts of a connector are often small, thin and vulnerable. Frequent or careless connecting or disconnecting of the connector can damage these contacts. But this also applies to the outer jacket that protects the wiring. Whatever the damage to a copper cable, we will be pleased to assess whether the cable can still be repaired and then carry out the repair quickly. We have many parts and tools to help you quickly and professionally.

Repair of regular fibre optic cables
In the case of short fibre optic patch cables, it’s sometimes not cost-effective to repair them. But when it comes to long lengths or fibre-optic assemblies with several fibres, it can be interesting to repair a damaged cable or connector. Therefore we estimate the costs in advance, so that you will not be faced with any surprises.

FAQ Repair of cabling
A fiber optic cable may need repair if it has been bent too sharply, mechanically stressed, cut, crushed or otherwise damaged. Since fiber optic cables carry light signals through very fine glass fibres, physical damage can interrupt the signal and require professional repair.
MCAP provides cable repair services that can be arranged through direct contact with the company. If you need fiber optic cable repair, you can reach out to MCAP to discuss your cable issue and whether repair services are available based on your location and specific needs.
MCAP repairs a range of cables including fibre optic and other specialised communication and industrial cabling. Each cable is inspected and tested to determine the correct repair approach before any work is performed.
When repairing a fiber optic cable, MCAP visually inspects the cable, locates the damaged point using measurement equipment, prepares the fiber ends and installs a new connector or splice if necessary, and then tests the repaired cable to confirm proper signal transmission.
If repairing a fiber optic cable causes it to become too short to be functional, MCAP may not proceed with the repair. In such cases, MCAP can produce a new cable that meets the required length and specifications so that the customer still has a usable solution.
The cost of fiber optic cable repair depends on the nature of the damage, the type of cable and whether the cable can be repaired. MCAP evaluates each cable before repair and can provide an indication of cost based on the inspection and required work.
Yes, if a fiber optic line loses signal, MCAP can inspect the line to identify where the fault or break is. Using professional test equipment, the location of the issue is assessed and the repair approach is determined based on whether the cable can be restored to proper working condition.
