Prysmian is an Italian cable maker, one of the largest in the world, producing power transmission and grid cables, building wire, and optical fiber and telecom cables under the Prysmian, Draka and General Cable brands.
It supplies both the power cables that feed data centers and the optical fiber and cable used inside them, and in 2026 it committed about $1.25 billion to expand US fiber capacity aimed at AI data centers; most of its business is still grid and power cables rather than AI-specific products.
Sells power, building and telecom cables and cable systems to utilities, grid operators, builders, telecom carriers and data-center operators.
