Many mechanical field terminable connectors use the 250 or 245 µm coding to restrain a cleaved fiber inside the back of the shell of the connector, therefore if you have a 900 µm tight buffer you have a need to strip the 900um buffer from The 245um UV coating....
When looking at adding optical fiber processing to a cable plant or adding a different product line such as tight buffer, one needs to be very thoughtful in several categories such as which product will be optimized, Product run time or change over time and what the...
In copper manufacture, the copper conductors are the strength members in many of the cable designs. The optical fibers on the other hand while very high tensile strength glass, are extremely small and highly susceptible compressive and to off axis stress.
When we...
Because most optical fiber is typically UV coated, which acts as a thermal insulator, there is almost no absorption of heat by the fiber. This physically causes many problems with polymer extrusion as differential cooling causes many issues in post-extrusion...
