Preformed Line Products (PLP) and Lightera announced a new compatibility program that pairs PLP's drop closures with Lightera's rollable ribbon fiber optic cable. This collaboration aims to streamline design and deployment strategies for FTTx networks, offering a groundbreaking approach to fiber network infrastructure.
The program combines PLP's COYOTE STP Pro Series (XL and L) and COYOTE DTC closures with Lightera's DuctSaver and AccuRoll rollable ribbon cables. This integration enables the deployment of fiber-dense cables, ranging from 144 to 288 fibers, using compact closures in smaller handholes.
This combined solution provides a highly scalable and cost-effective alternative to traditional deployment methods, which often require larger dome-style closures and handholes. The approach can result in a 30% cost reduction for the distribution portion of the network, offering significant value to customers.
