Preyco

What Preyco does

PREYCO SAS is a Colombian telecommunications equipment and services company founded in 2004 and headquartered in Cali, with national coverage across Colombia. The company specializes in fiber optic network technology, GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) and POL (Passive Optical LAN) deployments, and electronic security, serving customers in large commercial surfaces, university campuses, schools, industrial parks, private condominiums, hotels, and hospitals. Named project customers include Aerocali (Alfonso Bonilla Aragon Airport), Dumian Medical, Alcaldía de Jamundí, Cartonera Nacional, Colegio Claret, and Calzado Rómulo.

Preyco's offering combines product resale and integration services. It distributes a catalog of 120+ products spanning passive fiber optic components (adapters, connectors, terminal boxes, fiber cables, patch cords, PLC splitters, ODF panels, hermetic closures, hardware) and active networking equipment (ONTs, OLTs, switches, routers, media converters, SFP/SFP+ modules, and ZYXEL UTM firewalls). Equipment is sourced via direct import partnerships with V-KOM — a proprietary brand covering passive connectivity products — and ZYXEL for active networking. Revenue is generated through wholesale and retail product sales (hardware) plus professional services covering GPON/POL network design, supply, installation, splicing, certification, and server virtualization. Pricing is in Colombian pesos with VAT included and free shipping over COP $700,000.

Go-to-market operates through a WooCommerce e-commerce storefront for retail and small-buyer transactions, supplemented by direct phone and WhatsApp sales for enterprise project work and wholesale orders. Domestic logistics run through carrier COORDINADORA MERCANTIL with 2-4 day national transit times. The company has no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and no M&A activity; it appears to be a founder-owned simplified stock company (S.A.S.). The headcount range of 11-50 employees, single-country footprint, and integrated equipment-plus-services model position Preyco as a focused niche infrastructure provider within the Colombian fiber optic installation value chain.

Direct peers

• Calix: Calix is a specialist vendor of GPON and next-generation PON systems (OLTs, ONTs) plus network management software for service providers and enterprises. It directly parallels Preyco's GPON-focused active equipment offering, though Calix sells primarily to operators while Preyco serves enterprise/institutional buyers in Colombia.
• Panduit: Panduit provides end-to-end network infrastructure solutions including fiber optic cabling, connectors, cabinets, and physical layer systems, supported by integrator training and certification programs. Like Preyco, it sells passive connectivity components and partners with integrators to deliver enterprise network installations.
• Siemon: Siemon designs and manufactures IT infrastructure solutions including fiber and copper cabling systems, connectivity, cabinets, and data center infrastructure. Its product portfolio and integrator-led go-to-market closely mirror Preyco's passive fiber optic catalog and project-based distribution model.
• ADTRAN: ADTRAN manufactures fiber access, GPON, and enterprise networking equipment used by service providers and integrators. It competes with the active equipment (ONT/OLT, switches, UTM firewalls) Preyco distributes under ZYXEL and CDATA, targeting similar enterprise and carrier customers.
• AFL Telecommunications: AFL is a global fiber optic products and services company offering cable, connectivity, fusion splicing, and network installation solutions. Like Preyco, it bundles passive fiber components with installation and certification services, though at significantly larger scale and global geographic reach.

Emerging players

• DZS Inc. DZS (formerly DASAN Zhone Solutions) is a specialist provider of GPON, broadband access, and enterprise networking equipment. Like Preyco's ZYXEL-sourced ONT/OLT line, DZS targets GPON deployments for service providers and enterprise customers, making it a partial product overlap focused specifically on the fiber access technology Preyco integrates.

Broad incumbents

• Corning Incorporated: Corning is a global leader in optical fiber, fiber optic cable, and connectivity solutions serving telecom carriers and enterprise networks. Its optical fiber and cable products compete directly with the passive connectivity lines Preyco distributes, though Corning operates at the upstream manufacturing level rather than as a regional integrator.
• CommScope: CommScope is a global network infrastructure provider offering fiber optic cabling, connectivity, and GPON/active equipment for enterprise and telecom operators. It competes with Preyco's product lines across passive connectivity and active network gear, but at vastly broader scale and portfolio breadth.
• Furukawa Electric: Furukawa Electric is a major fiber optic cable and connectivity manufacturer with significant LATAM operations (Furukawa LATAM in Brazil and neighboring markets). It competes with Preyco in fiber optic cabling and passive connectivity across South America but at much larger scale and with manufacturing depth.

Others

• WESCO International (Anixter): WESCO International, which acquired Anixter, is one of the largest global distributors of electrical, communications, and utility products, including fiber optic cabling, active equipment, and networking gear. Its business model as a value-added B2B distributor of telecom infrastructure products closely parallels Preyco's wholesale/retail distribution role, though at massively greater scale.
