Special Features

  • Single layer and Multi‑layer stranded construction.
  • Low friction coefficient sheath design and materials assures long air blowing distance.
  • Easy to bend, laying and operate with small diameter, light weight.
  • Flexible buffer tubes provide easy fibre routing inside closure.
  • All nonmetallic structure, so there is no requirements for grounding.
  • This cable is suitable for construction in crowded metropolitan area network pipelines and avoiding destructive excavation in the past.

Drum Length

  • 2000/ 4000 meters ± 5%
