The company says the project will increase manufacturing capacity for loose-tube and drop optical-fibre cables, with construction expected to finish in the first half of 2028.<\/p><p>The announcement is a useful signal for businesses planning fibre infrastructure: new capacity is being developed, but a construction milestone is different from cable being available for a project today.<\/p><h2>What has been announced<\/h2><p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/na.prysmian.com\/resources\/press-releases\/prysmian-breaks-ground-on-100-million-dollar-expansion-project-in-jackson-tennessee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prysmian\u2019s Jackson announcement<\/a>, the expansion follows a US$30 million investment announced in 2022 to convert the site from legacy copper cable production to optical-fibre cable manufacturing. The latest project is expected to create 100 local jobs. It forms part of the company\u2019s wider manufacturing investment across Tennessee and the Carolinas.<\/p><p>There is also a direct AI infrastructure connection in that wider programme. In its <a href=\"https:\/\/na.prysmian.com\/resources\/press-releases\/prysmian-breaks-ground-on-more-than-1-billion-dollar-expansion-project-in-claremont-north-carolina\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10 September Claremont announcement<\/a>, Prysmian said additional capacity would support its long-term optical-cable supply agreement with Molex, addressing demand associated with AI, cloud computing and other data-intensive applications. The company expects that expanded facility to come fully online in 2030.<\/p><h2>Practical implications for UAE projects<\/h2><p><em>The following is XConnect\u2019s planning analysis, not a promise of product availability or pricing.<\/em><\/p><p>For a UAE data centre, campus or building upgrade, the immediate takeaway is to connect procurement decisions to the actual installation schedule. These US investments do not establish that a particular cable will be stocked locally, qualify for a project specification or arrive sooner. Obtain written confirmation for the exact part numbers and quantities you need.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Separate the cable applications.<\/strong> Identify which routes run outdoors, between buildings or within the data hall. A capacity announcement covering loose-tube and drop cables should not be treated as confirmation of availability for every indoor trunk or patching assembly.<\/li><li><strong>Resolve the complete connection schedule.<\/strong> Agree fibre counts, interfaces, route lengths and termination arrangements with the design team before placing orders. Record any approved alternatives so a substitution does not silently change the design.<\/li><li><strong>Keep delivery and acceptance together.<\/strong> Ask for manufacturing and shipping dates, then plan installation, inspection, testing and handover as one sequence. Reserve time to resolve damaged deliveries or unexpected site conditions.<\/li><\/ul><p>For AI infrastructure, a clear fibre plan belongs alongside rack, power and cooling decisions. The practical opportunity is to reduce uncertainty early: confirm the design, confirm the supply, and keep evidence of what was installed.<\/p><p>Explore our <a href=\"https:\/\/xconnectfze.com\/index.php\/datacenter-solutions\/\">data centre solutions<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/xconnectfze.com\/index.php\/contacts\/\">contact XConnect<\/a> to discuss your infrastructure requirements.<\/p><p><strong>Sources:<\/strong> Prysmian\u2019s Jackson announcement (15 October 2026) and Claremont announcement (10 September 2026), linked above.
