Corning’s solutions for harsh environments offer the ruggedized product portfolio necessary to endure the environmental and mechanical rigors found in oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, transportation, and energy/utilities infrastructures.
The 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. These demands require installers and designers to leverage different cable designs to meet current network complexity.
Imagine being able to continu¬ously, accurately, and in real-time detect small acoustic, temperature, and/or strain changes anywhere along an optical cable in the outside plant environment. And depending on the inter-rogation unit or laser source used, you could have the ability to detect various environmental events at distances from ones to tens of kilometers away, with large numbers of distributed “virtual” sensors along the path. This is possible by using optical fiber as the intrinsic sensing medium.
Product Highlights
To ensure our products are suitable for the extreme conditions and rigorous standards found in industrial applications, all of our low-smoke, zero-halogen™ (LSZH™) cables are independently tested to meet or exceed the requirements for tray-rated copper cabling with reliable and rugged performance.

Corning’s tray-rated cables provide advantages that not all cabling media can provide.
Our LSZH tray-rated cables are noise free, so no electronic noise can interfere with or disrupt data transmission. Additionally, customers are able to avoid the grounding requirements necessary with copper systems.
The glass in our optical cables is non-conductive, and our cables offer crush and impact resistance without the use of conductive armoring that requires grounding.

Installation of optical cable has continued to become easier, and our LSZH tray-rated cables can be deployed in an industrial network up to 50 percent faster than legacy methods.
In addition, our cables enable much longer cable runs than in copper-based networks; for example, our cables are guaranteed to provide 1 Gigabit Ethernet throughput for at least 1000 meters, so no repeaters or amplifiers are needed.

Our tray-rated cables were specifically designed for the unique requirements of industrial applications.
This includes a higher fiber count per cable for greater flexibility, one product set for both indoor and outdoor applications to provide a single resource for an entire facility’s needs, multiple cable jacket types created to meet specific needs, and special print to designate a tray-rated product.

We’ve got technology for virtually every local area network need. But often it comes down to the 20 percent of products you need 80 percent of the time. We’ve boiled that down into our EMEA Enterprise Networks Core Products for In-Building Networks (LAN) – the products most often used by our customers.
