OFS Fitel LLC has expanded the AccuRibbon DC Fiber Optic Cable product family to include fiber counts up to 864.
The gel-free ribbon cables will be available in dielectric and metallic versions. Currently, AccuRibbon DC cables are offered in fiber counts up to 432. The cables are designed to significantly reduce both cable preparation times and cable weights, which help lower deployment costs, reduce splicing expenses and speed installation times. Super-absorbent polymer tapes replace the gel in AccuRibbon DC cables to impede water migration in the cable core. These cables and water-blocking tapes have a 15-year, field-proven history in diverse outside plant installations and applications.
In addition to meeting Telcordia GR-20 Issue 4 requirements, the AccuRibbon DC cables have successfully met aggressive coiling simulations where the cables are twisted and coiled under real-world installation conditions. The installation simulation testing performed is significantly beyond the current minimum testing standards utilized by the industry.
