Rollable ribbon fiber cable was created specifically to maximize duct utilization for ultra-high fiber count applications. Cables with rollable ribbons are smaller and lighter weight than conventional flat ribbon cables. These cable designs allow installers to double the density of existing pathways vs standard cable designs.
To form these ribbons, 250 µm fibers are partially bonded to each other at intermittent points. This design not only enables mass fusion ribbon splicing but individual fiber breakout is also easier than with flat ribbons. These ribbons can be rolled and routed similarly to individual fibers to facilitate use in smaller closures and splice trays. The completely gel-free design also helps to reduce the time required for preparation for splicing. With its ability to maximize duct utilization, the Nanda Technologies is an ideal choice for connecting data centers, and serving as distribution for dense FTTx or mobile networks.
