Rule 9
Protect the network where it’s most
vulnerable
It’s widely known that the shallowest area for fibre to the home is at the drop to the
customer’s premises and sometimes it can be the most expensive. If you can just bury
themicroduct or cable slightly shallower it has a significant impact on the cost of FTTH.
The product shown here with GPR strength installed, makes the product spade resistant,
therefore less vulnerable to spades when people are digging in their garden.
Also, it’s a very stable product temperature wise, meaning it can be installed on buildings
from the summer through to winter with no movements, therefore there is a limited
movement to the fibre bundle as well.
The microducts can also be installed direct burial, direct install into existing ducts,
overheads and on walls proving the Emtelle
products are truly universal.
