HITRONIC® BxK
Fibre optic cable for direct burial and bending insensitivity
This fiber optic outdoor cable for use in WAN networks is extremely versatile and can be laid directly underground. It is ideal for solar and wind farms, for example. Thanks to the single-mode fibers compliant with ITU-T G.657.A1, uncomplicated installation is possible even in limited space – the fibers even manage tight bends without signal loss.
A-DQ(ZN)B2Y
Benefits
- Due to their high bending insensitivity, single-mode fibres (OS2) in accordance with ITU-T G.657.A1 are ideal where space is limited. They allow tight bends without signal loss and simplify installation.
- Fiber optic cables with glass optical fiber (GOF) have a high data transmission rate and range.
- Easy to handle due to the flexible connection options and compact design.
- The low-friction outer sheath and small bending radii allow cables to be installed by blowing them in with air.
- No electromagnetic interference from non-metallic materials is generated inside the cable.
Application range
- For outdoor use
- WAN applications
- Suitable for direct burial
- Methods of Deployment: empty plastic pipes, ducts and trays
- Typical areas of use are solar and wind parks.
