Fiberplex Technologies in Annapolis Junction is the new home of the LightViper system. The company was formed in July to reorganize the LightViper fiber optic brand and Shadow audio/visual brand formerly held by FiberPlex Incorporated.
The new organizational structure also brings with it an infusion of fresh capital, allowing the company to pursue expansion. FiberPlex technologies manufactures both fiber optic communications, audio, video, and telco equipment for use in private settings, the public sector, and the defense industry.
The company also manufactures professional audio visual equipment. Their Pro audio equipment has been used at the Orange Bowl, the BCS College Championship, and has gone on tour with several bands including Metallica. The audio video division was launched in 2004 by Harry "Buddy" Oliver, the new president and CEO of FiberPlex technologies. Cynthia Oliver Peters, an executive coach and organizational change management specialist, has also been added to the board at FiberPlex.
FiberPlex is planning to expand operations as it completes the transition cycle. The company is currently hiring a Senior Hardware Design Engineer. FiberPlex technologies also announced that it plans to continue its policy of keeping all of its staff and manufacturing in the United States, instead of outsourcing.
