FUTUREFLEX® AIR-BLOWN FIBER® SOLUTIONS

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s (SEL) FutureFLEX® Air-Blown Fiber® Solutions offer unprecedented ease of installation, flexibility, and cost savings for current and future network requirements. As the first air-blow fiber technology in North America, the FutureFLEX® solution offers competitive features and benefits to make it compatible with any network infrastructure design. The FutureFLEX® solution is popular in many educational and corporate campuses, sports stadiums, hospitals, DAS, oil refineries, and more.

The FutureFLEX® Air-Blown Fiber® Solution is comprised of five key components:

• Armored & unarmored tube cables - installed to create a cable pathway in both indoor and outdoor applications - tube cables often replace conduit and/or innerduct used in conventional cabling systems

• Fiber bundles blown through individual tubes are typically 1/40th the size of comparable conventional fiber optic cable

• Tube cables are joined together using tube distribution units (TDU), using easy pushfit connectors

• Fiber termination units are wall-mounted or rack-mounted enclosures used to terminate abf tubes and fiber bundles - SEL offers a full line of termination accessories and pigtails

• Blowing equipment, leased directly to licensed futureflex® installers, uses nitrogen to push the fiber bundles through the tube cables at timesaving speeds

• Tube Cable Considerations

• Jacket and Material Rating (OSP, Riser, Plenum, Armored, etc.)

Tube Distribution Units

STEP 2: INSTALL THE FIBER BUNDLE

Appropriately selected Fiber Bundles are blown through the Tube Cable Pathway

Fiber Bundle selection considerations include:

• Fiber Count (6, 12, 24, 48, or 72)

• Fiber Type (SMF, MMF, LOMM, etc.)

Blowing Equipment and Accessories

• Industry standard low water peak single-mode optical fiber

• Fibers individually color coded per TIA standards

• Yellow aerodynamic jacket allows long distance blows

SPECIFICATIONS

• Ripcords for easy bundle entry

• UL listed for use with fire-rated tube cables

• Meets ICEA, TIA and UL standards

OS2 Single-Mode Freeform Ribbon® Fiber Bundles

The new Bundle (FP72PVS) has the same 72ct Freeform Ribbon® design of the legacy product (FB72SP) but even better blowing performance* with improved durability. Now available with 48ct (FP48PVS). Both the 72ct and 48ct fiber bundles are available with Sumitomo Electric’s patented and advanced 12ct pliable ribbon technology known as Freeform Ribbon®. The Freeform Ribbon® allows for compact fiber bundle construction without the need for nylon subunits which makes the preparation and termination process much easier and faster compared to the legacy versions. Additionally, with 12ct Freeform Ribbon®, fusion splicing can be done with 12 fibers at once compared to only one fiber at a time for the legacy version, again, saving valuable time and overall termination costs.

FUSION SPLICER SOLUTIONS

When it comes to optical fiber fusion splicers, no other company in the world can match Sumitomo Electric Lightwave (SEL), who is second to none in innovation, speed, and performance. The entire industry-leading range of splicers offers quick termination and new standards in heater strives to surpass these standards for each new development in fusion splicing technology. Like the patented dual independent ovens, for instance, that provide unprecedented speeds and improve splicing efficiency by a staggering 80%.

Innovation is key. That’s why SEL was the first company to introduce patented breakthrough technology of the MPO Splice-On Connector, which revolutionized on-site connectivity and speed and brought lower project costs for the migration of the network. As the major leader in optical fiber and connectivity solutions, customers can expect reliability, flexibility, and unbelievable performance. After all, network infrastructure expansion becomes easy when you use state-of-the-art solutions. Freeform Ribbon® is the central component to achieve both.

Q102-M12 Ribbon Fusion Splicer

The new Type-Q102-M12 is accompanied with new features and benefits capable of deploying next-generation hyperscale networks. Consistent and quality low-loss splicing, the compatibility with LynxCustomFit™ Splice-On Connectors, and Sumitomo Electric’s patented dual independent ovens make this fusion splicer a preferred choice for extensive and diverse optical fiber networks. The new ribbon fiber splicer is adaptable to 250 μm and 200 μm ecosystems, and has a wide range of accessories for various ribbon fiber splicing situations.

CONNECTIVITY SOLUTIONS

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave (SEL) Connectivity Solutions feature Lynx-CustomFit™ Splice-On Connectors enabling quick, easy, and reliable customized FTTx, outside-plant, and inside-plant permanent field terminations without shorts, excess slack, and logistic delays of pre-terminated cables. Ribbon Breakouts include MPO pigtails and fan out kits that are designed to enable high quality, fast, and easy termination of ribbon fibers or loose tube fibers that have been converted to ribbon. The High Density Duplex LC Splice-On Connector with Push/Pull Tab is the world’s first field installable LC duplex solution for high density interconnection.

Lynx-CustomFit™ Splice-On Connectors

Customized, on-site, real-time field terminations and cable builds at exact lengths are now made possible, enabling quick, easy, reliable, and permanent field terminations without shorts, excess slack, and logistic delays of pre-terminated cables.

Compatible with all SC, LC, FC and ST style fiber optic connectors, Lynx-CustomFit™ Splice-On Connectors offer revolutionary real-time, on-site flexibility for quick moves, adds, changes, repairs, and restorations for minimal downtime, while eliminating crimping tools, gels, splice trays, and the inventory of varying length pre-terminated jumpers —  providing the industry’s most cost effective, reliable, and advanced choice in fiber termination.

BENEFITS

Lynx-CustomFit™, splice-on connectors are made with precisely polished ferrules matching the endface geometry of the best factory-terminated connectors. Combine that with a fusion-spliced termination that quickly creates a permanent connection with proven performance and reliability over a wide temperature range, and Lynx-CustomFit™ splice-on connectors are the obvious choice for field-installed connectors.

FEATURES

• Fully Intermateable with Other SC, LC, FC or ST Connectors
