MicroFiber

MicroDucts are small diameter conduits ranging from 5-22mm OD that provide a pathway for fiber cables. They are a natural evolution of standard conduits as space in networks is a premium and as new technologies develop, they typically decrease in size. FuturePath is two or more MicroDucts bundled under an oversheath. Both products can be installed using standard Outside Plant (OSP) installation methods in common applications.

Reasons for variable prices:
  • Price of oil changes
  • Price of resin changes
  • Thickness and length of innerduct
  • Number of duct
  • Colors of duct
  • Zip code to destination (shipping costs)

MicroDuct is bundled into an easy-to-handle unit known as FuturePath. FuturePath can be installed just like standard duct: open trench, aerial, directional drilled, plowed, or pulled into an existing conduit. When branching individual MicroDucts, there is no need for a special branching box. No special tools or equipment are required for installation.

FuturePath

  • No special tools required for installation, can be installed like a standard duct
  • Multiple pathways
  • Multiple configurations available
  • Internal Ribs, Silicore® ULF, Rip Cord, and Locate Wire

Dura-Line was the first to pioneer this technology and introduce it to the U.S. market. LSZH Conduit and MicroDucts, verified by the NRTL (Intertek) to ETL standards UL1685-4 and IEC 60754-1, exhibit excellent properties such as low-flame propagation, low-smoke generation, zero-halogen emissions, and excellent low-temperature mechanical properties. They are designed for use in applications where smoke, toxic fumes, and acidic gas pose a health risk and possible damage to electronic equipment. Examples include enclosed public areas and poorly ventilated areas such as tunnels, mass transit corridors, behind-the-wall, control rooms, and confined spaces.
