R&M expands ready-to-install cabling systems

R&M, the globally active developer and provider of high-end infrastructure solutions for data and communications networks, is expanding its range of terminated fibre optic cables. 
 
The VARIOline family now includes three plug-and-play solutions. The ready-to-assemble loose tube cabling system simplifies installation in buildings, data centres and outdoor areas. Installers only have to feed the cables into shafts, ducts and racks and connect them in patch panel modules. 
 
The overall solution, consisting of ready-to-use cables and fitted fan-out legs, saves field-mounting, splicing and measuring on the construction site. Installation work can be carried out in a time- and cost-saving manner with just a few specialists.
 
VARIOline cables
The VARIOline overall solutions are used for backbone, trunk and campus cabling with either single or multimode fibres.
 
VARIOline Easy is suitable for protected environments and enables high packing density in data centres and data networks for factories.
 
VARIOline Classic is the mechanically stable solution for medium packing density for indoor and certain outdoor cabling as an alternative to splicing.
The outdoor solution is called VARIOline OP. It can withstand extreme mechanical and thermal loads for FTTA, events, tunnels and smart cities.
The VARIOline products are compatible with all R&M fibre optic platforms.
 
Tailored assembly
R&M offers terminations to suit customer requirements with so far two to 144 fibres, commercially available connector types and custom lengths. The maximum total length is 600 metres. Depending on the use and number of fibres, the integrated fibre distributors with tube fittings have plastic or aluminum housings. R&M supplies the factory-tested VARIOline cables ready for assembly on recyclable cardboard drums. VARIOline cables are manufactured at all R&M sites and are therefore available worldwide at short notice.--TradeArabia News Service
