Corning's invention of the first low-loss optical fiber ignited the critical spark that began a communications revolution that forever changed the world. Today, there are more than five billion kilometers of fiber cable installed around the globe, and Corning continues to lead the fiber optic cable industry in product quality and innovation.

Indoor Fiber Optic Cables are used exclusively within buildings and must have a flame-retardant jacket to fit this purpose.

Indoor/Outdoor fiber optic cables are flame-retardant (FR) cables that are designed to meet both the rigorous environment of the outdoors and be routed indoors, where flame rating requirements also apply. Product Categories:

Ducts (or conduits) offer a highly protective environment for fiber-optic cables. They are typically buried, and then the cables are air-blown, jetted, pulled or pushed into the duct.

Corning’s MiniXtend cabling solution solves the demand for today’s unlimited bandwidth capacity and addresses escalating network duct congestion.

The first consideration in choosing a fiber optic cable is the environment that you will be using it in. Corning has fiber optic cables for outdoor, indoor/outdoor, and indoor environments in a variety of types and applications.

Ribbon cables offer higher fiber counts and fiber density than any other OSP cable. It's becoming the easiest, fastest way to plan for future network needs.

Corning ALTOS® cables provide stable performance over a wide temperature range and are compatible with any telecommunications-grade optical fiber.

In the absence of duct infrastructure, cables can be buried directly into the ground in a trench or using a vibratory plow.

Microducts are miniaturized plastic conduits that sub-divide internal duct space into smaller compartments into which micro cables can be installed by blowing, jetting or pushing.

Aerial outdoor cables are suspended from poles or pylons or mounted on buildings. Some are self-supporting, requiring no separate messenger wire between poles to support the cable’s weight.

Outdoor fiber optic cables can be strung along telephone poles (aerial), installed inside underground ducts, or buried directly below ground. Cable designs vary based on the installation application.

Corning offers a comprehensive portfolio of outdoor cable types including loose tube, ribbon, and microduct with a wide range of fiber counts and construction designs for terrestrial networks.

Fiber optic cables for outdoor applications are engineered to withstand the more demanding conditions seen outside, from environmental extremes to mechanical forces.
