La defence epad

Implementation date: 2006-2008

   

Product family: Cables
Product names: Optical fibre

Issues faced:

The EPAD site is highly unusual: it is an underground network of tunnels and accessways to business office blocks. The wiring used to set up the network on the EPAD site had to meet these constraints while also complying with international standards; in addition, it had to offer the protective systems essential to the indoor and outdoor facilities planned in the project.

ACOME solution:

The LSOH Reinforced Steel Compact Tube cabling used in indoor and outdoor situations meet all of the criteria and requirements inherent in this type of application, notably in terms of cable-pulling and installation, fire resistance (limiting the production of toxic smoke in a fire occurs) and protection against rodents.
