Sterlite Tech has launched 1152F variant cables at the India Mobile Congress (IMC) 2017 to support the capabilities of FlashFWD 5G solution.

These cable solutions have 50x the capacity of the current cables deployed in the country and future proof for the next 20 years.

Aruna Sundararajan, Secretary and Chairman – Telecom Commission, Department of Telecommunications,  said, “As the world looks at more fibre deployment, I think this is one of the products that will be a market leader. This technology also fulfils the Government of India objectives. As BharatNet and other optical fibre projects roll out in the country, we will see more such technology deployments.”
“With efficient use of limited duct space, the 1152F cable features a rugged design that protects the network in harsh weather and impact situations, increasing life expectancy to at least double the current average lifetime with lowest carbon-footprint,”

FlashFWD 1152F is NABL certified and complies with the latest global standards of IEC.60794 series, ANSI/ICEA S-87-640, Telcordia GR-20, and ITU-T Recommendations.
