Bend-Insensitive Fiber Jumper Cables are used in a variety of carrier networks and private network environments. The key to manufacturing high-performance fiber assemblies is controlling polish radius, apex offset and fiber undercut.

Bend Insensitive is less attenuation compared with traditional fiber cables and this will make the installation and maintenance of the fiber cables more efficient. In FTTH networks, people require the fiber cables to be bend-insensitive, so that it is easier to deploy in the house.
Another benefit we can get from bending insensitive fiber cables is they are space saving, this is also the trend of future fiber optic network - smaller, denser and more efficient. Many companies are able to provide the bend insensitive fiber optic cables before theofficial standard ITU-T-G657 was made.
Bend insensitive cable support installation with small cable bending radius and compact organizers.
