Direct Bury (DB) 7-way 16/12mm

HDPE Tube Bundle

Direct Bury (DB) 7-way 16/12mm

A bundle of micro/mini-tubes with strengthened walls is encapsulated in a single thin HDPE sheath, enabling seamless retrofitting into existing duct infrastructures for cost-efficient fiber optical cable deployment. Optimized for high-performance air-blowing, the micro ducts feature low-friction inner surfaces that accelerate fiber optical cable installation—critical for FTTH networks, 5G backhaul systems, and metro access networks. Color-coded per Figure 1, the ducts support organized routing of multi-service fibers (e.g., DCI, smart grid), enhancing network scalability and maintenance efficiency in next-gen optical infrastructures.
