Distributed Sensing Cable in Industrial Environments

Distributed Sensing Cable in Industrial Environments

Imagine being able to continuously, accurately, and in real time detect small acoustic, temperature, and/or strain changes anywhere along an optical cable in the outside plant environment. And depending on the interrogation unit or laser source used, you could have the ability to detect various environmental events at distances from one to tens of kilometers away, with large numbers of distributed “virtual” sensors along the path. This is possible by using optical fiber in an industrial network as the intrinsic sensing medium.

Providing Data Integrity in Rugged and Harsh Environments

Providing Data Integrity in Rugged and Harsh Environments

Corning’s tray-rated cables provide advantages that not all cabling media can offer.

Our LSZH tray-rated cables are noise free, so no electronic noise can interfere with or disrupt data transmission. Additionally, customers are able to avoid the grounding requirements necessary with copper systems.

The glass in our optical cables is non-conductive, and our cables offer crush and impact resistance without the use of conductive armoring that requires grounding.

Taking Your Network Further with Simplified Products

Taking Your Network Further with Simplified Products

Installation of optical cable has continued to become easier, and our LSZH™ tray-rated cables can be deployed in an industrial network up to 50% faster than legacy methods.

In addition, our cables enable much longer cable runs than in copper-based networks; for example, our cables are guaranteed to provide 1 Gigabit Ethernet throughput for at least 1,000 meters, so no repeaters or amplifiers are needed.
