Read this white paper to learn how the new ANSI-qualified AFL SOLO HD compression system utilizes a specialized core grip to eliminate speculation from the compression process and more.

White paper will show how a metal-coated fiber is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 500°C.

A white paper discusses using Anti-rotational devices (ARD) in optical ground wire (OPGW) installations.

The white paper explores the advantages and typical applications of single-jacket and double-jacket ADSS cable designs.

Increasing the fiber count in each individual buffer tube to 24 fibers reduces the size, weight, and cost of the ADSS cable.

AFL investigates and documents each aspect of the cable joining and the ribbon fiber splicing process of ultra-high density fiber optic cable in data center applications and new access networks.

This white paper aims to educate the industry on the different splicer technologies, using technical and data differentiators as opposed to marketing verbiage.

En el mundo de las empalmadoras, Fujikura fue el primero en utilizar tecnología de Bluetooth en una manera que se traduce en verdaderos ahorros monetarios.

Selecting the best bonding assembly configuration is dependent on proximity from the termination or suspension hardware to the support structure, terrain and wind conditions and tower hardware.

This white paper will introduce the larger categories of splice loss estimation methods and applications to better explain in context how the Fujikura's 41S splicer estimation technique performs.

This white paper explores the options electric utilities have to bring fiber deeper into their networks and AFL's FOLLOW THE POWER® approach.
