Corning Optical Communications

Our solutions simplify the design and deployment of your central office or headend, combining reliability and superior cable and patchcord management with the need for higher density and quicker installation at the lowest cost of ownership.

The Centrix™ solution is a high-density fibre management system that provides a balance of industry leading density with innovative patchcord routing.

• Up to 4,320 LC or 2,880 SC connector ports per 2.200 mm frame
• Manageable density of up to 16.000 ports / m²
• Configurable to different applications and environments
• Scalable architecture for easy expansion
• Superior patch cord management with one length in single, dual, and quad frames
• Fast and unpredictable network growth with low cost, but easy and fast deployment

Rising demand for bandwidth, escalating duct congestion and convergence as fiber goes network deep? All addressed by Corning’s micro cabling solution: MiniXtend® Cables with Binderless FastAccess® Technology - higher fibre counts in a smaller cable diameter footprint.

Designed for installation in microduct systems using air-assisted installation methods, Corning’s MiniXtend® cables are up to 50 percent smaller than standard loose tube cables and offer high-fibre-counts in a small cable diameter footprint.

BPEO closures are tool-less, compact, fully mechanical, and can be used with micro cable. Innovative single-circuit management allows for secure fibre routing in multiservice deployments. These closures are compatible with multiple drop environments and are an excellent choice for wall-mount applications, manholes, and handholes.

External cable preparation: Flexible range of cable sealing/ strain-relief, offering the unique advantage of performing all cable preparation outside of the closure.

Flexible fibre management: Designed for 900 μm buffered fiber or 250 μm bare fiber, a full family of interchangeable trays helps enable single circuit management for loose tubes and micro cable. This type of fiber management offers a unique way to store and route fibre and is ideal for multiservice networks.

Easy opening and closing: The mechanical latch is quick and easy to open and close without the need for any specialised tool. The built-in seals of the BPEO in conjunction with the latch mechanism ensure that the closure remains watertight even after frequent use.

Fully preconnectorized FTTx Solution: Explore the next generation of drops and terminals which can be installed where others can’t - enabling scalable, faster, lower cost fibre network roll out.

Designed for use in FTTx access networks where space and speed translate into savings, our preconnectorized Evolv® terminals and small-form-factor connectors enable faster deployment, reduce installation costs and offer a slimmer, more attractive design that work in all applications.

Pushlok® hardened connector technology is the key component enabling smaller terminals and drops for FTTx networks than ever before. Designed for use in nearly every access network environment, the terminal is small enough to be placed in existing handholes or pedestals where space is paramount, on building façades, or in aerial networks (pole- or strand-mount). Improved aesthetics improve end-user adoption for façade applications.

The Corning® Clear Track ILU and Hallway Fiber Pathways provide an aesthetically pleasing solution for both inside residences and multidwelling unit (MDU) hallway applications.

Clear Track Fiber Pathways enable service providers to deliver virtually invisible Gigabit broadband connectivity for both inside-living-unit (ILU) and multidwelling-unit (MDU) applications. The solutions are smart and stylish. Installation is fast and easy. In fact, one person can do the job in hours, not days, with minimal noise and intrusion.

Proprietary adhesive backing enables fast and easy installation on practically any surface. There is no need for glues, staples, plastic raceways, or extra ductwork. Just peel back the protective liner and press. Once it sticks, it stays.
