Application

The Unique-Tel NWGL series of micro cables are characterized by state of the art installation performance when installed by blowing into micro ducts. Particularly, installations in access networks with difficult routes, which are facilitated by the enhanced performance of the Viper cables.

All parameters such as cable diameter, sheath friction, cable stiffness etc are optimized for best installation performance without compromising mechanical or environmental properties.

The micro cables are based on a slim loose tube design with up to twelve tubes per cable. The design facilitates fiber preparation and mid-span access. The cables are suitable for long-distance, air blown installation in micro ducts, with an inner diameter of as little as 8 to 12 mm.

The cables have excellent bend performance and an extremely wide operational temperature range.

Design

The Micro Cables are designed with inner protective tubes made of a unique Poly-amide compound. The Poly-amide gives a special strength to the product, while increasing the bending properties as well as other benefits such as extreme temperature resistance.

As a result, The Viper Micro Cables are more durable during the installation process as they are able to withstand rough handling. The unique cable design with an extended operational temperature range of -45 to +70°C can be used in many environments, on all continents where heat and cold are often a major concern.
