What Tekser does
Tekser Elektronik San ve Tic Ltd Şti is a privately held Turkish IT infrastructure hardware company founded in 1995 and headquartered in Kağıthane, Istanbul. The company designs, manufactures (via Germany and Hungary-based contract manufacturing), and sells two main product families under the Tekser brand: PATCHBOX and SETUP.EXE. PATCHBOX is a retractable network cable management system built around spring-loaded cable cassettes housed in a 1RU metal frame that supports up to 24 ports, available in Cat. 6 (UTP/STP) and fiber optic (OM4/OS2) variants with custom configuration options. SETUP.EXE is a portable installation tool that functions as a mobile worktable, third-hand weight support (up to 15kg), and tool storage for network rack technicians, manufactured in Germany.
The PATCHBOX ecosystem is modular, including frames, replacement cassette 3-packs, Patchcatch zero-RU cable organizers, and blind panels, allowing customers to standardize and incrementally expand cabinet cable management. All products carry Fluke-tested patch cable certification and select SKUs are CE and RoHS compliant. Tekser operates a direct-to-customer e-commerce model through tekser.com.tr, serving 1,500+ companies in 40+ countries ranging from SMEs to large enterprises with horizontal IT-infrastructure-professional targeting. BERNINA International AG is disclosed as a named enterprise customer.
Revenue is generated entirely through one-time hardware sales — there is no subscription, recurring service, software, or licensing component in the disclosed model. Pricing is not publicly listed on the website; cart functionality is present but individual SKU prices are not surfaced. Marketing is conducted via the company website and organic social channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), with product demonstration videos (e.g., PATCHBOX Speed Challenge) emphasizing installation speed claims. The company has no disclosed external funding, parent company, subsidiary, or partnership structure, and no management team or leadership information is provided.
