The communication cable OptiC@t®5e is a combo of a four pair Cat5e and two bend-insensitive fibres. Not only will it’s capability for super high-speed make the building attractive to future owners, the Low Smoke Zero Halogen sheath makes the building much safer, too. Plus, the cables insensitivity to bending makes it a lot easier and less expensive to install. Copper and optic fibre links the present to the future and gives you the better of two worlds.

“Reel in a Box” – for easy dispensing High speed internet will soon be available to most businesses and homes with the government initiative to roll out a national fibre network. OptiC@t®5e  Hybrid Multi-Purpose Communication Cable allows the project owner and installer to “future proof”  their next project. Buildings that are “fibre ready” will have a distinct advantage when preparing to sell or promote their new project. OptiC@t®5e cable allows immediate connection to  existing twisted pair telecommunication networks  via the cat 5e cable, the high quality BendBrightXS™ fibres sit in the safety of a Low Smoke Halogen sheathed cable, ready to be connected to super  high speed internet when available.  The quality of BendBrightXS™ fibre optic BendBrightXS™ the latest in Bend-Insensitive fibre from Prysmian and Draka. BendBrightXS™ optical  fibres are specially manufactured using Draka’s  patented EPVC (Enhanced Plasma Vapour Deposition) process and complies with the ITU-T G.657.A2  standard. This market leading technology makes BendBrightXS™ virtually insensitive both to  MICRO and MACRO bending, making it perfect for  installation in compact and tight installation areas.  OptiC@t®5e can be installed in; • New housing estates  • Major home renovations  • Commercial fit outs of old buildings  • New commercial building installs  • New or old refits of residential units Why not get your next project ready for the optical fibre revolution, install OptiC@t®5e Hybrid Multi-Purpose Communication Cable.
