An East Farmingdale startup that dared to make small dreams has added another compelling act to its already impressive list.
With miles (and miles) of armored plenum fiber optic cables winding through the newly improved LaGuardia Airport, TiniFiber is now running its patented "micro armor" through the Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station Fiber optics, this is a new hall named 255,000 square feet, serving Amtrak and Long Island Railroad passengers.
Adding an ultra-high-definition digital display of a city block to its ledger, the Midtown Manhattan transportation hub is another impressive gain from TiniFiber, which is the new identity of long-term East Farmingdale service provider CertiCable. CertiCable is A start-up company founded in 2011 by serial entrepreneur Christian Peterson III.
When Peterson received a "micro-armoured coil" upgrade patent for standard fiber optic cables in 2015, CertiCable and its disruptive technology first entered a new vertical field. According to the innovator, Peterson's stainless steel micro-coil housing is not only super strong-65% stronger than older BX aluminum cables and standard aluminum interlocking armored cables-it also works well with existing fiber optic infrastructure .
"We haven't changed the properties of the fiber," Peterson told Innovate LI. "All we did was make a new type of armor outside."
Christian Peterson III: A stable fiber diet.
The entrepreneur added that TiniFiber is also smaller, lighter, and easier to transport than standard armored cables-a major advantage for distributors, end users, and "anyone who installs fiber optic cables."
Peterson said that this theory has been successfully tested during the multi-billion-dollar refurbishment project at LaGuardia Airport-all in all, the total length of TiniFiber cables spanning the new terminal and airport facilities exceeds 25 miles and serves " Technology and safety" purpose.
Moynihan Hall proved this again. The project designer insisted on installing a breakthrough miniature armored coil to protect the optical fiber. In fact, according to Peterson, TiniFiber is "strictly regulated" by project engineers and designers, which means that electrical contractors must insert the East Farmingdale brand into the countless screens and displays in Moynihan Hall.
"They can't use anything else," Peterson pointed out. "It must be us."
For Peterson, the brilliant act at the right time is not just an accidental discovery, he is a true creator—he studied culinary arts at New York Institute of Technology—he has developed to identify trends and predict Habits of needs and meet new needs.
He pointed out that he launched CertiCable at the height of the Great Depression, mainly by recruiting talents laid off by companies that tightened their belts and forming a new team of ready-made, technology-savvy professionals. Peterson said that his 2005 start-up, Certified Multimedia Solutions, offered a range of technology installation and service options, but was still "paying the bills," mainly focusing on low-voltage subcontracts.
CertiCable changed its name to TiniFiber in 2020 (for quoting website and printing marketing costs, Peterson estimated it would cost US$300,000) to maintain the johnny-on-the-site mantra of innovators. For the future motivation, he will rely on the continuous good relationship with various engineers, designers and consultants-especially the relationship with the project integrator, who coordinate the countless elements of the construction project and are "huge influencers", according to Peterson said.
Ready-to-use cables: the smarter the grid, the better TiniFiber.
"A system with multiple functions, you want the camera to talk to the walkie-talkie to talk to the alarm system, it needs to be integrated by multiple engineers," Peterson pointed out. "We have done a lot of smart building, Internet of Things, and fiber-to-the-home projects, so it is very important to cooperate with integrators."
At the same time, even if TiniFiber continues to "make progress with some celebrities" in new commercial and residential applications of its cutting-edge armored optical fiber, Peterson's inner innovators have already started to itch.
A new Long Island-based vitamin and health supplement manufacturing will be launched soon (coming soon). Peterson’s engineers have deeply understood the next big thing in the field of fiber optic connections that is taking shape, and entrepreneurs call it "fiber and electricity into one"-essentially, data and electricity are transmitted through a single pipeline.
Peterson said: "So you can put fiber optic glass and copper power [wires] under a jacket." "This is something that already exists in our system, but we are moving towards making it more commercially viable. get along with."
what is that? Stronger, smoother and lighter "micro-armoured" fiber optic cable
