Fiber and communications infrastructure knowledge brief Published 10 Jan 2023

Prepared for preliminary research by the ENSAA knowledge desk. Confirm optical interfaces, port or core capacity, electrical input and output, enclosure protection, thermal design and installation limits against current standards and product documentation.

Leading manufacturers of low voltage optical cable protection pipes include Eupen Cable, Weltplast, Pipelife, and Protectorshell, offering PE, PVC, and PP solutions for underground, industrial, and fiber optic applications.

Eupen Cable

Eupen produces PE and PVC pipes for the protection of low and medium voltage cables, as well as telecommunication, coaxial, and fiber optic cables. Their pipes are suitable for ground installation, building use, tunnels, and tracks, offering high mechanical resistance, watertightness, and chemical resistance. For fiber optic cables, Eupen provides grooved inner walls to optimize blown-in behavior and allow maximum blow-in lengths.

They also offer halogen-free pipes for fire safety in domestic installations.

Weltplast

Weltplast offers the Weltplast.protect system, including single-layer and multi-layer pipes for optical cable protection. Their Optical-PEHD pipes are made of PE80 polyethylene with longitudinal grooves for efficient fiber optic cable installation. They also provide two-layer OpticalSIlicore pipes with up to 90% PE80 and an inner SILICORE layer, ensuring high performance for telecommunication and signaling cables.

Color-coded pipes (black, orange, blue) facilitate network standardization.

Pipelife

Pipelife manufactures rigid and flexible PE, PP, and PVC pipes for cable protection, including fiber optic ducts. Their products are sand-proof, waterproof, and fireproof, suitable for underground and overground installations. Pipelife offers ribbed and lubricated ducts for high-speed air pressure injection of fiber optic cables, with large-diameter HDPE pipes extruded continuously up to 600 meters, and smaller diameters up to 2.

5 km. Their solutions are certified to national and international standards.

Protectorshell

Protectorshell specializes in split pipes for fiber optic, subsea, and offshore wind cables. Their ductile iron split pipes provide abrasion and impact protection in shallow water and offshore environments. Manufactured in Spain and Australia, these pipes are suitable for shore-ends, pipeline crossings, and subsea cable protection, with a range of accessories like J-Tube seals, bend restrictors, and bend stiffeners for offshore applications.

Summary

For low voltage optical cable protection, these manufacturers provide a variety of solutions: Eupen Cable: PE/PVC pipes, grooved for fiber optics, fire-safe options. Weltplast: PE80 and SILICORE pipes, color-coded for network standardization. Pipelife: Flexible and rigid PE/PP/PVC pipes, long continuous lengths, fiber optic ducts.
