Towards a Lasting Future: Exploring the Useful Life of Optical Fibers

Optical fiber

In long-distance fiber optic communication systems, the transmission characteristics of the optical fiber must be stable over time. Especially buried long-distance trunk cables and submarine cable systems, place higher demands on the service life of optical fibers. Usually, for the useful life of the terrestrial fiber optic cables, it is expected that there will be more than 20 years of safe use. While, for submarine fiber optic cables, progress has been made in demanding that their life expectancy increase to more than 25 years, with an average of 10 years required between failures.

What is Fireproof Fiber Optic Cable?

Optical cables on fire

Fireproof fiber optic cable is a safe and reliable option for data transmission. This type of cables has a special flame retardant polyethylene or flame retardant PVC sheath instead of a conventional sheath. This modification in the materials does not alter the structure, dimensions or transmission properties of the cable.
