ACOPTIC - FTTH- MCD1521 HD
High-density micro-cables for blowing through micro-ducts
200µm fibre, M24, from 144 to 288 fibres
200µm fibre, M24, from 144 to 288 fibres
Benefits
- Up to 3 times more fibres in the same micro-ducts compared with standard mini-cables : up to 192 OF with 8/10mm micro-ducts, 288 OF with 10/12mm
- Convenient : ACOME's ACSM7A2_200µm optic fibre is ITU-T G.652.D and G.657.A1-compliant 200µm fiber with low loss and enhanced bend performance
- Efficiency : Together with the low friction PEHD sheath material, the shape of the cable offers little contact surface to its low friction sheath.
Applications
- ACOPTIC® brings together ACOME’s optical cables solutions for Telecom networks.
- MCD1521-HD cables are high-density mini-cables designed for blowing through micro-ducts installed as part of Telecom networks (transport and access networks).
- They can be used with smaller micro-ducts for new installations as well as for renovations aiming to increase your network capacity
