What is FlexRibbon® Technology?
Conventional flat ribbons consist of 12 optical fibers housed within a rigid structure. While this design allows for mass-fusion splicing, it has certain limitations. In contrast, Prysmian's FlexRibbon® Technology uses intermittent bonds between the fibers, creating a more flexible unit that still permits mass-fusion splicing. This innovation effectively addresses the shortcomings of the earlier technology.
Very High-Fiber Count FlexRibbon®Cables
Toggle DetailsOne of the early focuses for FlexRibbon® technology was to increase the fiber count for standard duct sizes. Prysmian now offers fiber counts ranging from 1728 to 6912, optimized for 1-1/4”, 1-1/2”, or 2” ducts. Some options come with 250-micron fiber, while others have smaller 200-micron fiber. For more details, you can refer to our product datasheets.
Microduct Cables with FlexRibbon® Technology
Toggle DetailsMicroduct cables are an efficient choice for cable deployment, but many customers prefer ribbon cables due to their ease of splicing. While traditional (flat) ribbons are incompatible with microducts, our innovative FlexRibbon technology is. Explore our product datasheets for more details.
