Optical fibres are housed in a loose tube that is made of high-modulus plastic and filled with tube filling compound. Aramid yarns are placed outside the loose tube as the strength member, then a sheath with grooves is extruded. This type of cable is particularly applicable to airblowing constructions in access networks.

Cable Section:

Application:
Duct
1. Smal size and light weight
2. Tube filling compound providing key protection for fibers
3. Unique design of sheath with grooves ensuring good air blowing performance
4. Allowing to blow by phases to reduce initial investment
5. Allowing to cut micro ducts anywhere anytime for branch without influences on other cables, saving manholes, and cable joints
Comply with standard IEC 60794-1.
