HFCL: 864-Fiber Nano Thin G.657.A1 Microcable

Feb. 26, 2025

HFCL’s 864-fiber Nano Thin G.657.A1 Microcable empowers customers by maximizing network capacity in brownfield and greenfield deployments. It is uniquely designed to deliver maximum capacity expansion in brownfield scenarios. The microcable’s compact 10.6 mm diameter allows for seamless installation into unoccupied microducts, including multipath ducts, or via microduct override within larger ducts. Operators can unlock their existing duct networks' full potential without costly upgrades, ensuring efficient and cost-effective capacity expansions, especially in space-constrained urban environments. Its small diameter supports smaller ducts, handholes, and closures, reducing material and system costs.
JUDGE'S COMMENT: "HFCL offers an option for operators who need a high fiber count but not the bend performance of A2 fiber."
