- Hextar Capital Berhad is an investment holding company that specializes in telecommunications network infrastructure, optical fiber cable manufacturing, power transmission and distribution engineering, civil construction, and financial solutions. Founded in November 1994 and headquartered in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia, the company operates primarily within Malaysia, serving telecommunications network operators, power utility providers, enterprise clients, and government infrastructure agencies. The group organizes its business activities across multiple core operational segments: Manufacturing, which develops and produces loose tube optical fiber cables, indoor and outdoor fiber optic cabling systems, cable accessories, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sub-ducts, corrugated pipes, and industrial lubricants; Telecommunications Network Infrastructure Solutions, which encompasses turnkey engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) of telecommunication towers, civil network structures, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) network rollouts, optical fiber splicing, testing, data center connectivity, network maintenance, and satellite communication engineering; Power Generation and Renewable Energy, which provides EPCC services for high-voltage substations, power transmission grid networks, electrical distribution infrastructure, and biomass renewable energy solutions; Construction and Project Management, which executes civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, and architectural contracting works alongside comprehensive project supervision; Trading and Engineering Services, which supplies industrial cable filling and flooding compounds, industrial materials, and specialized cabling hardware; and Financial Solutions, which delivers licensed moneylending, business project financing, and commercial credit facilities. In December 2023, the company executed a major corporate reorganization and officially changed its name from Opcom Holdings Berhad to Hextar Capital Berhad following its 2021 takeover by the Hextar Group, realigning its strategic mandate toward diversified utility infrastructure and capital management. Recent strategic developments include the acquisition of a 49 percent equity interest in Transgrid Ventures Sdn Bhd to scale its presence in high-voltage power transmission and renewable energy engineering, the acquisition of a strategic equity stake in Binasat Communications Berhad to bolster satellite transmission and mobile network support services, the entry into credit and financing services via Opcom Trading Sdn Bhd, and the expansion of its civil infrastructure footprint through contract wins secured by its subsidiary Legacy Core Sdn Bhd.
