How does the tight-buffered fibre design simplify field termination?
Tight-buffered fibres feature a robust 900 µm coating directly applied to the 250 µm primary-coated fibre, eliminating the need for loose-tube breakout kits. This allows installers to strip and cleave the buffered fibre directly for connectorisation, which speeds up splicing and reduces both labour time and material costs. The design also minimises potential points of mechanical failure, critical for high-availability links under the environmental stressors described in IEC 60794-1-2 mechanical tests.
