1000 metres in a Single Blow: HFCL's Optibend Unitube Mini Cable for FTTx Connectivity

HFCL took on a demanding FTTx requirement from a European customer to deliver a Unitube blown cable capable of reaching 1000 metres in an 8/5 mm microduct at 7 bar pressure. While the initial 24-fibre prototype showed promise, it fell short under real-world conditions. This led to a focused redesign. After 26 iterations and close collaboration with HTL Hosur, HFCL developed an optimized Optibend Unitube Mini Cable with a low-friction outer jacket, validated through rigorous testing, and proven to meet the customer’s performance expectations.
