HDPE duct pipes pre-lubricated with silicone core suitable for telecommunication and fiber optic cables. They are derived by combining the strength and flexibility of PE material with a suitable lubricating
Microducts are typically small-diameter, flexible, or semi-flexible ducts designed to provide clean, continuous, low-friction paths for placing optical cables that have relatively low pulling tension limits.
The aim of this document is to provide generic information on design & construction of Non-Metallic Fiber Optic Cable (duct type & “mini cable” blown type) with loose tube, to be used for Outdoor
This Specification covers the design requirements and performance standard for the supply of optical fibre cable in the industry. UnitekFiber ensures a stable quality control system for our cable products
This document provides specifications for a 144 core duct cable made by Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Company. It uses a stranding loose tube cable
This calculator assumes an optimal duct/MicroDuct fill ratio range of 50-75% (Outer Diameter (OD) of cable over Inner Diameter (ID) of duct) for jetting micro cable into MicroDuct.
These outdoor duct optical fibre cables are optimized for blowing, jetting or pulling into ducts. Please refer to our General Installation, Safety & Handling recommendations before handling.
This document provides comprehensive guidelines for single-mode optical fiber cables installed via the pulling method in ducts and tunnels, primarily for telecommunication networks.
The system installs fibre optic cable of 6mm (0.25”) to 32mm (1.25”) overall diameter, at speeds up to 90m/min (300ft / min), into pre-installed ducts. The system operates on the viscous drag principle
Fill ratios are calculated by comparing the area of an inner diameter cross-section of the innerduct to the outer diameter cross-section area of the fiber optic cable.
