InSky OPGW
Used by electric utilities on transmission lines with the voltage of 35 kV and higher for creating optical communication lines and protecting the power lines from lightning strikes.
InAir ADSS
Applied for aerial installation on distribution and power transmission lines for building long distance optical communication systems.
Specialty Cable
Used for distributed fiber optic sensing in different applications.
InFire Rated
Used for indoor and outdoor applications where fire resistance is a must. Remain functional under direct flame for at least 180 minutes.
InDuct
Applied in ducts, conduits and trays with no risk of rodent attacks. Can also be lashed.
InArmor
Designed for high reliability in harsh environments with potential mechanical impact. Applied in all ground types, swamps, and harsh rivers.
BlownIn
Designed for air blowing in ducts and microducts for building reliable underground communication networks.
InWater
Designed for underwater application with increased crush and tensile loads.
InAir Figure 8
Used for cost-effective one-step aerial installation mostly in rural areas where the spans between poles are not long .
InControl
Applied in substations for control purposes.
InHome FTTH
Used to create communication lines between the common distribution box and a location inside the building (including vertical runs), between entrances or corridors in office buildings.
InDrop FTTH
Applied for aerial installation on transmission towers, lightning poles, between buildings and structures for communication networks in rural areas.
A figure-8 design for applications where induced voltage and current must be eliminated.

Ripcord
InAir Figure 8 CT FRP is a central tube cable with a fiberglass rod as an external strength member. It’s a cost-effective aerial fiber optic cable with a reduced weight and size. This design is all-dielectric and UV-resistant. It also has a wide range of operating temperatures from -58°F to +158°F and installation temperatures from -22°F to +122°F.
InAir Figure 8 CT FRP features multi-purpose outdoor installation. The typical type of installation is overhead fiber optic cable installation between poles and buildings, though it can also be pulled into underground ducts and sewer pipes as well as installed into indoor/outdoor cable conduits and trays.
This cable consists of a central loose tube with optical fibers (up to 24). Free space inside the tube is filled with water-blocking gel. FRP rod is used as a suspension element.
Check how InAir Figure 8 CT FRP can be deployed as part of FTTH system.
