Considerations in outside fiber optic cable design
Considerations in outside fiber optic cable design
Learn MoreThe Outside Plant network is evolving due to ever increasing bandwidth demands and the push to drive fiber deeper and deeper into the network. Because of these trends we are seeing rising demand for fiber counts greater than 1000 fibers in one cable and simultaneously the desire to pack more and more fiber into a smaller cross-sectional footprint.
