About Ben Hughes Communication Products
Our mission is to provide the best tools for installing telecommunications systems, and we offer a full product line that includes stripping, coring, crimping, cutting, and cleaning tools for drop-cable, hard-line, fiber, and wireless applications. Renowned for their precision and superior quality, all Cable Prep brand tools are designed, assembled, tested, and factory calibrated at our Chester facility to meet the exacting standards of a broad range of cable and connector manufacturers.
To serve our worldwide market, we sell our products through a network of authorized Cable Prep distributors in the United States and more than 20 other countries.
Meeting the Highest Standards … Yours!
By focusing on the unique requirements of each application – drop, hard-line, wireless, or fiber – we are able to design innovative tools that are easy to use. We know that accuracy and consistency are essential to both worker and network performance, so we ensure that our tools provide the precision needed, time after time.
All Cable Prep brand tools perform to the standards set by cable and connector manufacturers and the SCTE. We test each prototype to be sure it’s easy to operate and comfortable to use. We repeat the same operations thousands of times and compare the results. Whether we’re evaluating standard core depth, center conductor length, or jacket strip back, our requirements are tough. It’s not enough just to meet spec; we need to be sure our tools will make your job easier – and safer.
Other design considerations are to make our tools compact, lightweight, and durable, as well as easy to identify. To facilitate picking the right tool for the job, Cable Prep brand tools are consistently color-coded according to the cables and connectors with which they are used.
Once our in-house testing validates our design concept, we work with the finest part manufacturers in the U.S. Together, we look for opportunities to minimize product cost, but never at the expense of quality. We are rigorous in our ongoing quality control and measure our success by the way our products perform in the field. No one at Cable Prep is satisfied until we have developed a tool that is superior to any other for the job.
We Want to Hear From You.
Everything at Cable Prep centers around performance: tool performance, network performance, installer performance, our performance. We listen attentively to those who install and maintain systems equipment, so that we can design tools to make their jobs easier. Through constant communication with manufacturers of cables and connectors, we ensure that our tools work well with their newest products. By talking with those who buy our products, we are able to keep our pricing competitive and our tools readily available to meet demand. And, by watching our competitors’ responses to our initiatives, we are assured that our products are held in high esteem.
But we take the most pride in being the vendor of choice for so many customers. To achieve that distinction requires including the highest quality service as well as products.
