Sterlite launches six new products

MUMBAI: Sterlite Optical Technologies, a provider of optical fiber (OF) and telecom cables, today launched six new products.

These include DOF Lite (Metro), Bend Lite OF, Hybrid Cable with Power Cable, Micro Duct Lite Cable, Combo Cable, and SuperLAN-Cat 5e drop cable.

Dr Anand Agarwal, director and CEO, Sterlite, said, " We are attempting to offer innovative products to suit different needs to encourage the use of optical fibre in the last few miles of connectivity. This is largely in response to the enthusiastic response we have received from builders and real estate buyers at property exhibitions across India."

DOF LITE (Metro) is "S" band compatible. It supports the CWDM transmission system with 320 channels in S, C & L bands at 10 GB per second.

Bend Lite OF is compatible with standard SMF ITU T G652 A, B, C, D fiber and is capable of low bend radius, tighter routing and high fiber density. This ensures a very high resistance to macro bending loss on C&L band.

Hybrid cable with power cable consists of both optical fiber as well as copper wires. These are ideally suited for last mile connectivity as it affordably offers the delivery of power and telecommunications through the same cable. The cable is capable of providing an always-on link.

MICRO Duct Lite CABLE is a lightweight, low diameter and flexible cable. This makes the blowing of cable through the pre-lubricated ducts easy. The cable has excellent optical, mechanical and environmental characteristics. It has a specially developed low shrinkage high-density polyethylene sheath with normal thickness of 0.5mm.

The cable can accommodate a fiber count of upto 72F (or 96F or higher). It also has a unique type of loose tube material-polybutylene terephthalate with low shrinkage characteristics.

Combo Cable is a solution to deliver broadband applications ADSL, FTTH & IPTV. Being fire retardant, lightweight, flexible and easy to install, it is suitable for indoor applications.

SuperLAN is suitable for outdoor application. These support transmissions at 1,000MBPS/1000 Base—T Ethernets and operates at a frequency of up to 100 Mhz. Withstanding 1000 N Tensile load, it excess requirements as prescribed by International Standards TIA/EIA-568B.2 and ISO 11801.
