STL introduced its high-density 864F Micro Cables, designed to enhance connectivity in dense fiber networks across the US. These innovative cables offer superior fiber density, efficient installation, and sustainability benefits.
Key Points:
- Ultra-high fiber density: 1.5X more fibers in the same diameter; easy installation up to 1500m in 14mm ducts.
- Longer network life: Bend-insensitive 200-micron fiber increases power budget, reduces maintenance, and speeds up installation.
- Sustainable and cost-saving: Uses 40% less plastic, cutting civil costs by up to 70%.
- Easy to install: Slim outer jacket and reduced form factor enable tighter coiling and easier fiber bundle access.
- Additional product: Intelligently Bonded Ribbon (IBR) Armored cable ensures easy installation and excellent splicing outcomes.
- Local production: STL’s South Carolina facility supports federal and private broadband projects, including the BEAD Program.
