Corning RocketRibbon™ extreme density cables:

  • Are available in fiber counts of 1728F and 3456F in a small footprint.
  • Utilize a completely gel free water blocking design that eliminates additional fiber cleaning
  • Proven ribbon design that is the standardized across the globe
  • Introduces a completely new subunit design that enables 288F in a small, flexible package
  • Each stack of 288 fibers is contained within a colored gel-free, extruded sub-unit
  • Sub-units can be routed directly to splice trays and hardware
  • Sub-units are finger-peelable, enabling instant access to ribbon stacks
  • 24 F ribbons can be split quickly and easily, ready for mass-fusion splicing
  • Water-swellable tape protects sub-units and ribbon stacks against moisture

    Corning high -density gel -free cables offer the ultimate combination of fiber density and ease -of -use in extreme fiber count outside plant cabling. Providing fibers in an extreme density design, flexible subunits containing stacks of 288 fibers can be easily routed directly into hardware without furcation. Each subunit is also finger - peelable, enabling rapid access to the ribbon stack for faster termination. The conventional 12 -fiber ribbon is maintained, ensuring robustness, installer familiarity and no change to the long stablished mass -fusion splicing process. Each individual ribbon within the subunit features a unique printed ID for fast, easy identification and efficient fiber splicing management.
