Corning 12 to 144 Fiber Singlemode MiniXtend Cable with Binderless FastAccess Technology

Corning 12 to 144 Fiber Singlemode MiniXtend Cable with Binderless FastAccess Technology

Corning MiniXtend® Cable with Binderless* FastAccess® Technology is an all-dielectric loose tube cable designed for microduct applications and features industry-leading fiber density. The innovative Binderless FastAccess Technology improves cable handling and reduces access time up to 70 percent while lowering risk of cable and fiber damage. The MiniXtend Cable design reduces the cable diameter by up to 50 percent (versus traditional loose tube cables) which improves fiber density for duct applications and also enables new applications which can reduce total install cost by up to 60 percent. This cable also features Corning SMF-28® Ultra single-mode fiber which combines industry-leading attenuation and improved macrobend performance in one fiber. SMF-28 Ultra fiber is ITU-T Recommendation G.652.D compliant and also exceeds the requirements of the ITU-T Recommendation G.657.A1 standard.

* Corning’s patented Binderless* FastAccess® Technology refers to the combination of a Corning FastAccess Technology jacket with an innovative technology used to bind cable construction through the manufacturing process, eliminating the use of binder yarns and waterblocking tapes.

Features And Benefits:
Binderless* FastAccess® Technology - Innovative cable design that reduces cable access time up to 70 percent and lowers the risk of inadvertent fiber damage
Improved cable and fiber density - Small cable OD enables higher density and lower deployment cost; up to 96 fibers in 8 mm ID duct and up to 144 fibers in 10 mm ID duct
Optimized for air-assisted install in microducts - Capable of installation distances greater than 2000 m (6560 ft) at speeds up to 150 m/min (490 ft/min)
Mid-span express buffer tube performance - Meets the Telcordia GR-20 and RDUP/RUS PE-90 requirements for mid-span express buffer tube storage
SMF-28® Ultra fiber - ITU-T G.652.D/G.657.A1 rated fiber with improved attenuation and bend performance as well as compatibility with standard single-mode fibers
Fully waterblocked loose tube, gel-filled design - Meets industry standard waterblocking requirements for outdoor cable
