Aerial Microduct Assembly 5/3.5 mm with Tracer TPD 5/3.5 mm 1-26 -way Tr, TIA598

• For installation in existing ducts
• 1, 2, 4, 7, 12, 19, 24 or 26 over-sheathed ducts
• 5/3.5 mm microducts
• Low friction inner surface for maximum installation lengths
• Excellent environmental properties
• Integrated tracer wire under sheath

Application

The tight protected duct assemblies consist of a number of microducts with an inner low friction, antistatic surface that enables installation of air blown fiber. The duct assemblies are bundled with a single HDPE sheath depending on configuration. The design makes the duct assemblies especially suitable for installation into narrow existing ducts (pipes) or pipes occupied with cables or other obstacles. The round structure enables easy splicing and sealing at joints and branch locations. The microducts are optimized for best performance in combination with the Hexatronic Stingray Air Blown Fibers and Hexatronic Raptor Nano Cables.

The integrated tracer wire saves time and installation cost since an additional wire for tracing is not required.

Design

The duct assemblies are available in several versions with 1 to 26 microducts.

Each microduct has an outer/inner diameter of 5/3.5 mm. These are suitable for installation of air blown fibers. The center duct of 24 and 26-way assemblies is 10/8 resp. 12/10 mm and can be used for blowing in a micro cable.
