Binderless* FastAccess® Technology
Corning's Binderless FastAccess Technology refers to the combination of a Corning FastAccess Technology jacket with an innovative technology used to bind cable construction through the manufacturing process, eliminating the use of binder yarns and waterblocking tapes and resulting in a 25 percent improvement in cable access time. These technologies also reduce the overall risk of inadvertent fiber damage by reducing the need for sharp cable access tools.
Binderless stranded optical core
Elimination of overlapping yarn binders around stranded tubes to reduce end access time
Fully waterblocked loose tube, gel-free design
Simple access and no clean up
Polyethylene jacket
Rugged, durable and easy to strip (while providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion and other environmental factors)
Available with G.652.D and/or G.657.A1 fiber
Ready for any application
