Project Description
DESCRIPTION:
OPTIVINE’s microcables are compact and lightweight, designed for applications where large numbers of fibers are required and space is limited, especially used in data centers and metropolitan networks.
This outdoor allows a different installation technique where the cable is “blown” into micro ducts or plastic tubes much smaller than conventional fiber ducts or conduits.
Cable Construction:
~ Central Strength Member (CSM)- glass fiber reinforced plastic rod (FRP);
~ PBT Loose Tube filled with a suitable water tightness compound;
~ Optical Fibers;
~ Fillers (nature plastic rods when needed);
~ Dry core with water swellable elements for longitudinal water tightness;
~ Ripcord under jacket;
~ Outer Sheath (Black HDPE)
Application & Standards:
~ For access, distribution, City network and FTTx applications.
~ Fully dielectric cable.
~ Designed to be rapidly installed by blowing.
~ High blowing distance due to the excellent friction properties of the outer sheath.
~ IEC 60794-1-2 – Basic optical cable test procedures.
