Freeform Ribbon™ OSP All-Dielectric Microduct Cables

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s Freeform Ribbon™ OSP All-Dielectric Microduct Cables provide immediate scalability with installations of exact fiber types and counts required in real time. This cable features an all-dielectric design requiring no grounding or bonding, and the patented 12-fiber pliable Freeform Ribbon™ constructed of 250μm & 200μm color-coded optical fibers. Conduct fast and easy installs, upgrades, and MACs in minutes or hours versus the weeks or months associated with traditional cabling.

Freeform Ribbon™ enables high fiber density within a small cable diameter, which in turn helps with limited duct space. The 12-fiber ribbons may be spliced to a conventional ribbon, pliable ribbon, or non-ribbonized (single) fibers, as well as connectorization with both MPO and all industry-standard connectors. The non-preferential bend axis allows for easy installation in space-constrained areas.
