HDPE PE100 Multi-Duct for FTTH, 5G & Smart City Networks (Gulf Telecom Standard)
The rapid expansion of FTTH (Fiber-to-the-Home) networks, 5G backhaul, smart city projects, and metro fiber installations throughout the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and other Gulf countries has led telecom operators to ask for duct systems that are compact, sturdy, and ready for the future. These systems should be able to hold the large amounts of fiber that need to be installed without incurring high digging costs. MicroDuct 4 Way Square 25/20MM—a four-path square-profile HDPE microduct—is one of the most selected solutions in the region.
It is made of PE100 HDPE, designed for desert climate durabilities, and commonly supplied in Black with Blue Stripes (telecom standard in GCC); this microduct installation efficiency, higher cable blowing distances, and multi-path fiber routing within one structure.
he MicroDuct 4 Way Square 25/20MM is a four-channel, square-configured microduct system. Each channel has 25 mm outer dimension and 20 mm inner bore, offering ample internal space for larger micro-cables, high-fiber-count mini-cables, and blown bundles.
The unique square profile provides balanced mechanical strength, excellent crush resistance, and stable routing in trenches or duct banks. Compared to flat microduct assemblies, square multi-ducts provide greater structural rigidity and uniform stress distribution—beneficial in roads, highways, and high-load civil zones.

It is possible to run multiple cables, create diversion routes, or use the fiber lines of the operator all inside the same building.
The 20 mm bore is the one which enables longer blowing distances of the cable and higher fiber counts to the fullest.
The uniform load distribution prevents deformation in deep trenches, road crossings, and HDD routes.
The first-class material grants the product with long life, flexibility, and resistance to adverse climate conditions.
Friction is removed, the installation speed is boosted, and the required effort is minimized.
The black pipe is colored with UV-stable carbon black and bears blue stripes to indicate telecom installations.
It can withstand the scorching heat, sand, and the environment of buried infrastructure.
Installation methods are many and flexible as needed in GCC cities.
No rust, little maintenance, and high reliability are the costs.
