About FIBER SLEEVES

Fiber Optic Splice Protection Sleeves are designed to secure and protect fusion spliced optical fibers by providing a strong transparent and waterproof covering These heatshrinkable sleeves ensure minimal signal loss and maintain the mechanical strength of the spliced fiber making them ideal for FTTH telecom data centers and industrial fiber networks

Optimal Protection for Fiber Splices

Fiber sleeves offer robust shielding from environmental and mechanical stress, essential for preserving the integrity of fiber optic splices. Their construction from EVA and polyolefin provides both flexibility and resilience, making them well-suited for telecom industry needs where reliability is paramount.

Thermal Shrinkage and Easy Installation

With a shrink temperature of just 120C, these sleeves simplify the installation process. Heat application securely encapsulates and protects fiber joints, ensuring long-term stability and minimal signal loss. The transparent/white color helps verify the alignment during the process.

Resisting Environmental Hazards

Designed to withstand UV exposure and moisture, these sleeves maintain performance in challenging conditions. Their flame retardant property further enhances safety, making them trusted components in demanding telecom infrastructure deployments.

FAQ's of FIBER SLEEVES:

Q: How do I install these fiber sleeves on optical fiber splices?

A: To install, align the sleeve over the fiber splice and apply heat at or above 120C. The sleeve will shrink, securely encapsulating the splice and providing mechanical protection. Ensure proper alignment before shrinking for optimal results.

Q: What are the benefits of using fiber sleeves with EVA and polyolefin materials?

A: The EVA inner tube offers excellent flexibility and secure encapsulation, while the outer polyolefin provides mechanical strength and environmental resistance. Together, they offer moisture, UV, and flame resistance, ensuring long-term fiber protection.

Q: When should I use transparent or white fiber sleeves in the telecom industry?

A: Use these sleeves whenever reliable splice protection is needed, especially during the installation, maintenance, or repair of fiber optic cables. The transparent design allows for easy inspection to verify proper splice alignment and coverage.

Q: Where should I store unused fiber sleeves for optimal shelf life?

A: For best results, store fiber sleeves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Proper storage conditions help maintain their protective qualities and extend their effective shelf life, which is approximately one year.

Q: What process ensures the sleeve shrinks to the correct diameter?

A: Applying heat above 120C initiates the shrinking process, reducing the sleeve from approximately 2.5 mm to about 1.0 mm in diameter. Use a controlled heat source for uniform shrinking and to avoid damaging the fiber optic splice.

Q: Are these fiber sleeves suitable for outdoor or harsh environments?

A: Yes, these sleeves are engineered to be UV and moisture resistant, as well as flame retardant, making them ideal for outdoor or harsh environmental applications typical in the telecom sector across India.
