  • Product Detail
  • ■Product Overview

    Air-Blown Fiber Unit (BFU/EPFU) is a compact fibre unit designed for air-assisted installation into microduct networks. It is typically used to expand capacity by blowing additional fibre units through existing microducts without re-opening civil works.

    ■Typical Applications

    Microduct networks for FTTH / access build-out

    Staged expansion projects (add fibres when demand increases)

    Duct bundle retrofit and restoration routes (route-dependent)

    ■Construction

    Optical fibers: 250 μm (standard) or 200 μm (optional for higher density, subject to availability)

    Unit body: fibre bundle with protective polymer layers

    Outer jacket: low-friction thermoplastic (commonly HDPE-based), UV-resistant

    ■Available Fiber Types

    Single-mode: ITU-T G.652.D, G.657.A1/A2 (by request)

    Multimode: OM3/OM4 (by request)

    ■Technical Specifications (Typical / Configurable)

    Values below are typical targets for BFU/EPFU products; final performance depends on unit OD, microduct ID, route profile, and blowing equipment settings.

    ■Fiber Count Options

    Common: 1 / 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 / 12 fibers

    Optional: 24 fibers (usually requires higher density fibre and a larger unit OD)

    ■Dimensional Range (Typical)

    ItemTypical Range
    Nominal OD1.1 – 2.3 mm (depends on fiber count and fiber diameter)
    Unit weight~1 – 4 kg/km (configuration dependent)

    ■Environmental

    ItemTypical Range
    Installation temperature-10 to +50°C
    Operating temperature-30 to +70°C
    Storage/transport-40 to +70°C

    ■Blowing Compatibility (To be specified per project)

    Compatible microduct ID: commonly 3.5–5.0 mm ID for small units (varies)

    Blowing distance: route dependent (duct cleanliness, joints, bends, lubricant, pressure, equipment)

    ■Marking & Packaging

    Supplied on reels/spools; delivery length and reel size by agreement

    Packing label typically includes fiber count, fiber type, length, and batch information

    ■Ordering Information (RFQ Copy)

    Please specify: fiber count, fiber type (G.652.D / G.657 / OM), fiber diameter (200/250 μm if required), target microduct ID, and delivery length per reel.
