The ABF is the product that with small diameter, lightweight,
highly flexibility and proper stiffness, and it can be blown into
the microduct of 5.0/3.5mm. The fibres are coated with a soft
acrylate resin which provides excellent dimensional and thermal
stability to cushion the fibres, in addition, the resin can be
easily stripped in connecting the fibres. The outer sheath is a
thermoplastic that is of low friction. The surface of the sheath is
designed with special grooves, compared to the surface of the
traditional optical fibre cable, it provides not only the high
level of mechanical protection, but also the perfect blowing
performance.
Features and Benefits
- 2,4,6,8 and 12 fibers options.
- Stable structure, good mechanical and temperature performance.
- Designed with special grooves to advance blowing distance.
- Lightweight and proper stiffness , repeat installation.
- Designed with no gel, easy stripping and handling.
- Better costs advantage compared to traditional product.
- Complete accessories, less manpower, lower installation time.

Note: It is recommended that the structure of 2 fibres unit consist
of 2 filled fibres, for it is provedthat 2 fibres unit with 2
filled fibres is better than the one with zero or one filled fibre
in the blowing performance and the fibre stripping-ability |
