The Blown Fibre system from TE Connectivity
The Blown Fibre system from TE Connectivity provides a simple solution to manage evolving network
demands without the need for high initial capital expenditure or extensive network planning. Blown Fibre
enables optical networks to adapt to changing business requirements.
The TE solution allows optical fibres to be deployed on demand from one point of a network to
another (internal or external) using compressed air to blow optical fibre into pre-installed tubes.
Building your network using the TE Blown Fibre system could realise the
following benefits:
SIMPLIFIED PLANNING
• Network is built according to today’s needs
• Fibre count can be increased as demand grows
COST EFFECTIVE
• Pay as you grow – install empty tubes and only pay for fibre as and
when required, spreading capital investment over time
• Reduced splicing – minimises branching and splicing of traditional
networks, which reduces engineering costs
• Deployment of fibres is related to actual requirement
• Elimination of unlit fibre and the associated up front investment
INCREASED FLEXIBILITY
• Future proof network build
• Networks are easily upgraded, branched or extended, giving maximum
flexibility and uninterrupted fibre blowing right to the destination
• Simplified emergency restoration
• Latest and emerging fibre technologies can be deployed
SPEED OF CUSTOMER CONNECTIONS
• Equivalent performance for first connections, significantly reduced
timescales and costs for subsequent connections
• Existing tube routes can be interrupted at any place, allowing rapid network upgrades
