...Fibre optic cable not only gives you immunity to interference and greater signal security, but it’s also constructed to insulate the fibre’s core from the stress associated with use in harsh environments. • Fibre cable contains a coating...

...within a loose-tube cable. It can be a headache-inducing task if you don’t have the right tools. If you bend the cable or buffer tubes past their recommended bend radius, or if you allow them to kink, you’ll end up with substandard cable connect...

...Bending a fibre cable • One of the most important considerations when installing fibre optic cable is maintaining the minimum bend radius. Bending a fibre cable excessively may cause the optical signal to refract and escape through the cladd...
