Fiber Optic Distribution Cable: ULTIMODE BS-12SM (12xG.652.D, easy access)

View of the cable

A look at the construction of the cable

ULTIMODE BS-12SM belongs to an innovative system of fiber optic cabling with easy fiber access, especially useful in high-rise and multi-dwelling buildings. The fibers can be branched directly to individual subscribers without the need for splicing within the riser of the building. They are easily extracted from breaking windows in the gel-free tube.

The construction of ULTIMODE BS cables allows the installer to cut out windows in the sheath (tube) and pull out single fibers without a risk of damage, thanks to a proper inner diameter of the tube. Additional protection is provided by two aramid rods in the sheath, which, in addition to strengthening and stabilizing the tube, act as protective barriers to the stripper blade.

ULTIMODE BS-12SM cable contains 12 single-mode fibers. The color identification of the buffer layers complies with the GB13993.3-2001 standard. The jacket (sheath) is made of low smoke zero halogen flame retardant poly-olefin (LSZH).

The single-mode fibers used in the cable are ITU-T G.652.D, in 900 μm tight buffers. The G.652.D fibers are currently the most popular single-mode fibers, thanks to reduced water peak attenuation and capability of using within the whole 1280 nm to 1625 nm wavelength range. The G.652.D fibers are optimized for transmission at the wavelengths of 1310 nm (attenuation less than 0.36 dB/km) and 1550 nm (attenuation less than 0.22 dB/km), but they can be used at any wavelengths within the 1280-1625 nm range. The fibers are made in accordance with IEC 60793-2-50, EIA / TIA-FOTP and ITU-T G.652.D standards.

ULTIMODE BS easy access cables are designed for fiber optic systems in high-rise buildings and multi-dwelling units (MDUs). MDUs are commercial or residential buildings with multiple offices or apartments, including "open space" solutions. The cables can also be successfully applied in old buildings with tight shafts, not allowing to use several cables. In this case, the use of the ULTIMODE Building System with easy access cables allows broadband service providers to build the distribution system much faster and easier.

We also offer fiber optic distribution cable, based on easy access technology, with 24 single-mode G.625.D fibers: ULTIMODE BS-24SM L7724.

ULTIMODE Building System is a solution to create FTTH networks in buildings (Fiber To The Home). The system provides a complete range of products for deployment of fiber optic links in each apartment/office, including "open space" offices.
