STL explains benefits of Celesta Ribbon optical fibre cable

STL has launched the Celesta Ribbon Optical Fibre Cable, an intelligently bonded ribbon, during FTTH Europe Virtual Conference 2020.
Optical fiber investment
STL said its Celesta Ribbon Cable is a high-density optical fibre cable with a capacity of up to 6912 optical fibres. This innovative design combines robust performance for duct installations with the productivity of high-count mass fusion splicing. The result is a 26 percent slimmer cable as compared to traditional loose tube cables with the same fibre count.

Its compact, blow optimised design allows for efficient duct space utilization, enabling operators to install up to 2000 meters of cable in less than one hour’s time.  This, combined with a host of new features like bend insensitive G.657.A2 fibre, contra helical binding, and gel-free water blocking, makes Celesta a truly installer friendly cable.

With Celesta, network operators can reduce roll-out time, optimise duct space utilisation, reduce the size of passive network infrastructure and improve network performance resulting in as much as 32 percent savings in the overall investment, thereby enabling them to roll out 5G future-ready networks efficiently, Phill Coppin of STL said.
