KNITECH MiniFlex Corning Fiber Optic Cables

KNITECH MiniFlex Corning fiber optic cables offer a high-density, space-saving solution for modern telecommunications infrastructure. These cables are designed with a reduced diameter, making them ideal for installation in micro ducts that have a minimum inner diameter of 4mm. This design facilitates easier installation in tight spaces commonly found in urban environments.

Key Features

  • Enhanced Cable and Fiber Density: Allows for more fibers per cable, increasing the capacity of existing duct systems without the need for additional infrastructure.
  • Small Cable Diameter: Tailored for micro duct installations, these cables can be deployed in ducts as small as 4mm in diameter, optimizing space and reducing installation costs.
  • Fully Dielectric Construction: With no metal parts, these cables require no grounding, simplifying installation and reducing overall deployment time.
  • Air-Assisted Installation Compatibility: Specifically engineered for air-blown installation methods in micro ducts, facilitating rapid deployments over distances up to 1200 meters at speeds ranging from 25 to 40 meters per minute.
  • State-of-the-Art Fiber Technology: Incorporates Corning’s G657A1 fiber and meets ITU-T G.652.D/G.657.A1 standards, ensuring low attenuation, excellent bend performance, and seamless integration with existing single-mode fiber networks.
  • Durable and Efficient Design: Features a dual-layer tube construction and a low-friction polyethylene (PE) sheath, enhancing the durability and efficiency of the cable during the installation process.

 

Benefits of Using KNITECH MiniFlex Corning Fiber Optic Cables:

  • Space Efficiency: The compact design allows for more fibers per duct, maximizing the utilization of limited infrastructural space.
  • Reduced Installation Time and Cost: The fully dielectric, grounding-free design, along with the capability for air-assisted installation, significantly cuts down on labour time and expenses.
  • High Performance and Compatibility: Equipped with leading-edge fiber technology that offers improved performance while being compatible with existing network standards.
  • Ease of Identification and Handling: Fibers are color-coded within each tube, simplifying identification and handling during installation, which reduces setup times and minimizes potential errors.
