Contour Flow cable represents an innovative breakthrough in outside plant cable technology, minimizing cable diameter to maximize use of existing infrastructure and accelerate deployments.
The cable design is enabled by Corning® SMF-28® Contour fiber, a 40% smaller fiber* with improved bend resilience for high-density environments. Fibers are arranged in flexible Flow Ribbons for efficient mass fusion splicing.
Higher fiber count (≥ 864F) options have finger-peelable, color-coded subunits that can be readily accessed and routed directly into hardware without furcation, reducing cable preparation time by up to 30%.
Contour Flow cable is a more sustainable option as well. Due to its decreased diameter and increased fiber density, the cable enables up to a 27% reduction in carbon footprint per fiber.†
* SMF-28 Contour fiber has a 190 µm outer diameter that provides a 40% cross-sectional area reduction when compared to a 242 µm fiber.
†- Based on initial estimates pending third-party verification, comparing 864F armored option to the next best alternative.
