Early on, Axion developed a number of products that utilized fiber optic technology. One was a highly popular didactic module designed for postsecondary teaching institutions in America and Europe. The company also designed a range of power supply products and industrial monitoring systems.


In 1980, Axion (then Pocatec) gradually asserted its North American leadership in public transit communication systems.
