Puri says company keeps a sharp focus on industry needs
STL (NSE: STLTECH) showcased its industry-leading 288 fibre Microcable with 180-micron fibre at Connected Britain 2024, saying that it is keeping a laser-sharp focus on industry needs as it continuea to develop products that are not only ahead of the curve but also highly customer-centric.
“Our intent is to consistently deliver meaningful, region-specific solutions. Our advanced portfolio of 180-micron and 200-micron HD Microcables exemplifies our focus on design engineering,” said Rahul Puri, Sales Head—EMEA & APAC, STL.
“As we move forward, we will keep a laser-sharp focus on industry needs as it continuea to develop products that are not only ahead of the curve but also highly customer-centric,” Puris said on 12 Sept.
STL is one of the leading companies in the industry to develop a microcable product using 180-micron fibre. STL was among the first in the world to develop 180-micron fibre. Embedding it in its microcable design further pushes the envelope on product innovation.
Additionally, the company also put forth its elevated 200-micron Microcable family (96-864 fibres) with an impressive 20% average area reduction, improving duct utilisation and blow performance while reducing material consumption and carbon footprint.
STL’s 180-micron Microcable combines two industry-leading innovations – a miniaturised fibre design and a high-density, low-diameter cable. With 288 fibres in a 6.6 mm outer diameter, the product offers superior installation and handling performance. Compliant with ITU-T G.657. A2 and IEC 60794-5-10 standards, this flexible and ultra-lightweight cable can be deployed in 8mm microducts using air-blowing techniques, reducing installation time and cost. The bend-insensitive properties of this fibre make the cable immune to tight bend scenarios.
With a first principles approach to materials, design and manufacturing innovation, STL took meaningful strides in its 200-micron HD Microcable family (96 – 864 fibres), unlocking benefits for service providers and installers:
• Increased available duct utilisation through 20% area reduction
• Improved installation efficiency through higher blowing speed
• Backward compatibility with legacy networks
• Reduced carbon footprint with lower material consumption.
