Microtubes

Single-walled protective tubes are designed for the latest technology used in the construction of FTTx (Fiber-to-the-X) optical access networks - microtechnology.

Parameters and temperature

  • Various amounts of micropipes can be installed in the HDPE conduit (depending on the outer diameter of the micropipe and installation needs)
  • Version: Standard (DI) and Rugged (DB)
  • Material: high-density polyethylene (PE-HD), including UV stabilizer upon request
  • Colors: standard shades according to RAL
  • Handling temperature: from +5°C to +50°C
  • Operating temperature:from -40°C to +70°C
  • Storage temperature:from -40°C to +60°C
  • Warning: The connector or microtube end is not included in the delivery

Standard microtubes (DI) – primary

  • Designed for installation in existing protective pipes (empty or already partially occupied) 
  • Installation by blowing method, or by pulling for shorter distances)
  • Inner wall smooth or grooved, including sliding layer
  • Dimensions: 7/4; 10/5.5; 12/8; 14/10; 16/12; 20/16 mm see complete table below

Reinforced microtubes (DB)

  • Designed for direct installation into the trench during the construction of new access networks without an additional protective pipe
  • The reinforced walls of the microtubes and their mechanical properties will provide sufficient protection for optical microcables
  • Inner wall smooth or grooved, including sliding layer
  • Dimensions: 5/3.5; 7/5.5; 10/8; 12/10; 14/12mm see complete table below
