GFT per mm ² and allowing installation into standard 8mm ducts. Its PicoTube technology reduces cable size by up to 35 % compared with conventional microduct cables, which lets installers pull new cable into congested ducts or specify smaller ducts in new buildings. The BendBrightXS 160 µ m single-mode fibre it uses remains compatible with existing G. 652 infrastructure.
“ We set a new standard of fibre miniaturisation, and now we can unlock unpredicted cable density,” says Ian Griffiths, Vice President of R & D for Prysmian’ s Digital Solutions segment.
“ This means not only more efficient connections in high-density applications such as data centres, FTTx and 5G, but also, we can significantly reduce deployment costs for our customers and make the roll-out of this essential digital infrastructure much faster thanks to its compact design.”
