Reinforcing optical fiber cables with Twaron®
Optical fiber cables are key to supporting high-speed internet and advanced technologies like 5G, IoT, and AI. Twaron® para-aramid strengthens a wide range of cables, from ADSS to FTTX, ensuring reliable, future-ready connectivity even in the toughest environments.
5G
5G networks require robust solutions to handle high-speed, ultra-low latency, and reliable connections for AI, IoT, and real-time applications.
Twaron®-reinforced cables offer exceptional strength and resistance to environmental damage, ensuring durability in diverse conditions. With non-conductive properties to prevent electrical interference, Twaron® enhances the stability and reliability of fiber optic cables, making them ideal for the high demands of 5G infrastructure.
FTTX
FTTX networks, including Fiber to the Home (FTTH) and Fiber to the Business (FTTB), rely on fiber optic cables to provide fast and reliable internet connections.
Twaron®-reinforced cables enhance these networks by providing the strength to support their own weight when installed on poles, resisting environmental damage for long-term durability, and maintaining non-conductivity to prevent electrical interference, ensuring safe and dependable performance.
ADSS
ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) cables are designed to span long distances and perform reliably in challenging environments, such as areas near high-voltage power lines.
Twaron®-reinforced cables provide the high tensile strength needed to support their own weight without sagging. Their non-conductive properties prevent electrical interference, ensuring safe use near high-voltage areas. Twaron® also offers exceptional resistance to moisture, heat, and chemicals, maintaining durability and reliability even under extreme conditions.
Product value
Twaron® delivering clear value in optical fiber cables
Optical fiber cables need to withstand extreme conditions. Reinforced with Twaron®, they offer strength, durability, and reliability, handling challenges like electric discharges, ice loads, high winds, UV radiation, and mechanical stress.
Sustainability
The future of sustainable communications
Twaron® plays a key role in advancing sustainable telecommunications with one of the lowest CO2 footprints for optical fiber cable reinforcement. Easily recyclable, Twaron® also supports the shift toward a circular economy, reducing carbon emissions and minimizing environmental impact.
As a founding member of the Sustainable Optical Fiber Industry Alliance (SOFIA), we work alongside partners like Borealis, Covestro, Heraeus, Nextrom, and Umicore. Together, we’re working to improve industry standards, foster better communication, and contribute to a more sustainable future for optical fiber cables.
