Featuring a ruggedized simplex cordage, the EZ-Bend 3.0 Cable can offer less than 0.1 dB macrobending attenuation at 1550 nm for 1 turn at 5 mm fiber bend radius. Its solid fiber construction can provide a macrobending performance far better than ITU G.657B requirements, and it is backward compatible with installed G.652D fibers.

Benefits:

• “Copper-like” installation process: Can be routed using familiar copper wire practices
• Faster, easier installation: no extra steps to install bend limiters, conduits, or raceways
• Compact installation and storage: Conforms to building; slack fits in small storage spaces
• Fast, easy, low loss splicing to G.652D fiber with existing core and clad aligned splice equipment
• Familiar, standard connector termination: Solid fiber construction can be terminated using standard optical connectors and polishing techniques
• Familiar connector endface cleaning using same process as with existing G.652 solid construction fiber
• MDU and in-home optimized: Ideal for in-residence wiring and difficult installation routes in MDU overbuilds
• Greener Solution: Free of heavy metals and RoHS-compliant; solution uses less total materials and energy than copper solutions

Featuring a ruggedized simplex cordage, the EZ-Bend 4.8 Cable can offer less than 0.1 dB macrobending attenuation at 1550 nm for 1 turn at 5 mm fiber bend radius, and less than 0.3 dB macrobending attenuation at 1550 nm when subjected to MDU Simulation Test called out by Verizon TPR.9424 FOC Document. Its solid fiber construction helps enable a macrobending performance far better than ITU G.657B requirements, and it is backward compatible with installed G.652D fibers.

Benefits:

• “Copper-like” installation process: Can be routed around corners using familiar copper wire practices, and stapled
• Faster, easier installation: no extra steps to install bend limiters, conduits, or raceways
• Compact installation and storage: Conforms to building; slack fits in small storage spaces
• Fast, easy, low loss splicing to G.652D fiber with existing core and clad aligned splice equipment
• Familiar, standard connector termination: Solid fiber construction can be terminated using standard optical connectors and polishing techniques
• Familiar connector endface cleaning using same process as with existing G.652 solid construction fiber
• MDU and in-home optimized: Ideal for in-residence wiring and difficult installation routes in MDU overbuilds
• Greener Solution: Free of heavy metals and RoHS-compliant; solution uses less total materials and energy than copper solutions

Available in 4.8 and 3.0 diameter cordages, as indoor/outdoor, riser, plenum, or low-smoke, zero-halogen constructions, the EZ-Bend Assemblies can offer less than 0.1 dB macrobending attenuation at 1550 nm for 1 turn at 5 mm fiber bend radius, and are a solid fiber construction with macrobending performance far better than ITU G.657B requirements. They are backward compatible with installed G.652D fiber.
