Key Features

  • Triple Duct Configuration - there can be several fiber lines in one path.
  • HDPE PE100 Material - this material gives strength, durability, and long-term reliability.
  • Low-Friction Inner Layer - transferring fibers over long distances is easy and requires very little effort because there is no friction.
  • UV & Temperature Resistant - the cable is highly suited for the severe weather conditions of the Gulf.
  • Flexible Installation - dmH allows direct burial, duct-in-duct, micro-trenching, and aerial installations.
  • Scalable Design - it is possible to expand the network without additional excavation.
  • Standards Compliant - it is compliant with ITU-T, IEC, ISO, and BS EN specifications.

Applications

The Microduct 3 Way 28/24 mm is ideal for multiple GCC telecom and data projects:

  1. FTTx Networks – High-density fiber deployment for residential and commercial areas.

  2. 5G Small Cell & Macro Backhaul – Supports base stations and data backhaul connections.

  3. Smart City Infrastructure – Backbone for IoT sensors, CCTV, traffic systems, and utilities.

  4. Industrial Fiber Networks – Oil & gas, petrochemical plants, and manufacturing facilities.

  5. Data Centers & Enterprise Networks – Reliable fiber pathways for high-speed connectivity.

  6. Urban & Rural Deployments – Micro-trenching, duct-in-duct, or aerial installations.

Installation Methods

  • Direct Burial - Ducts are placed in trenches on suitable bedding and with protection to prevent damage.
  • Duct-in-Duct - Existing conduits are used for future network expansion.
  • Micro-Trenching - This is the shallow laying of optical fibers along streets, pavements, or city corridors.
  • Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) - It is a solution for road, bridge, or very busy area crossings that are difficult to reach.
  • Aerial Deployment - It refers to the installation of the cable on poles, which is common in rural or temporary systems.
  • Installation Tips:
  • Avoid applying sharp bends over the manufacturer's specified radius.
  • Smoothest fiber blowing possible is ensured with the use of proper reels and feeding equipment.
  • Ensure that the ducts are aligned and not under tension prior to the cable installation.
  • Let maintenance and future expansion areas be visible.

Advantages

  1. High Density – Three ducts in one pathway for multiple cables.

  2. Cost-Efficient – Reduces trenching, labor, and civil works.

  3. Long-Distance Blowing – Low-friction inner surface enables efficient fiber deployment.

  4. Durable & Reliable – PE100 construction withstands GCC desert heat, UV, and soil pressure.

  5. Future-Proof – Network expansion is possible without additional excavation.

  6. Flexible Deployment – Suitable for urban, rural, industrial, and aerial applications.

  7. Standards Compliant – Meets ITU-T, IEC, ISO, BS EN, and regional telecom standards.

Benefits for GCC Telecom Operators

  1. Heat Resistant - Working still at an efficient rate of more than 50°C.
  2. UV Resistant - Best solution for the places with the greatest exposure of light for the whole installation period.
  3. Maintenance Costs Reduced - Quality HDPE material guarantees a long life.
  4. Supports Smart City Projects - Reliable backing for IoT, traffic, and security systems.
  5. Allows Installations of Expanding Networks - Installing additional fiber cables no more digging required.
