CommScope announced that China Unicom has
selected CommScope’s smoothwall RF feeder coaxial cable for projects in Guangxi
Province, taking advantage of the cable’s cost savings versus traditional
corrugated copper cabling.
Projects in which HELIAX FXL coaxial cable
are being deployed include the 550,000 square meter Beihai No. 1 Northern Bay
residential complex.
“Most wireless operators demand high
quality products to build their networks, unwilling to sacrifice performance
for cost savings. We are excited that China Unicom has joined many other
wireless operators in trusting the performance advantages of our HELIAX FXL
coaxial cable,” said Chinnee Tong, vice president, China Sales,
CommScope.
The HELIAX FXL smoothwall cable from
CommScope uses aluminum as the electrical conduit of the cable’s outer
conductor. The cable’s patented microcell dielectric and foam-filled inner
conductor offer the advantages of: Superior Performance and Efficiency – Lower
attenuation, helping data move faster and more efficiently across networks.
Compared with traditional all-copper
cables, HELIAX FXL is more energy-efficient, durable and has greater
flexibility. In addition, it requires less electric power and fuel to
manufacture and transport. And, with its aluminum outer conductor, it is less
prone to the theft issues that have been affecting network components made
entirely from copper.
