FibreFast™ Microcable


FibreFlow  FTTH  Telecoms  Rail  5G  Indoor  

Our FibreFast™ Microcable contains a state-of-the-art, specifically designed polymeric sheath that is optimised for blowing. Tests, for example blowing 500 metres at 50 metres per minute, have shown that the sheath, in combination with the Microcable’s single layer resin, improves blowing performance by up to 50%. The FibreFast™ Microcable is extremely easy to use and handle compared to other methods, stripping the fibre can be done quickly with greater reliability. This ensures considerable savings on the costs associated with manpower.
