BBN International announces the Kaiphone range of armoured cables.
With cables spanning environments from indoor to harsh outdoor,
underwater and underground there is a solution for most fibre optic
cabling challenges.
The following table summarises the benefits of armoured cable in
typical datacom situations.
|
Standard optical fibre cable: |
Armoured cable: |
|
Requires protection from over bending and
wear normally in the form of corrugated tubes which are bulky
and hard to route neatly. |
Is self protecting. |
| Spare length normally has to be
accommodated in the cabinet for protection. |
Spare length can be left outside the cabinet e.g. in floor
spaces. |
|
Wear and over bending can degrade transmission quality and
security. |
Resists both these effects. |
|
Is not suitable for outside deployment and can be affected
by moisture, rodents, natural erosion and being stepped on. |
Resists all these effects. |
|
Is hard to recover without damage from corrugated tubes
especially if there are many bends or many cables. |
Does not need corrugated tubes. |
