If you’re considering investing in the deployment of multiple fibre harnesses in fibre optics cables, you may be wondering if it’s worth it. The answer is yes, there are several advantages to bundling your cables. First of all, bundled cables are much easier to manage and keep track of than individual cables. This can save you a lot of time and hassle in the long run. Additionally, bundled cables tend to be more reliable and durable than individual cables. This ensures that your business remains connected even in the most challenging conditions. This is because they’re less likely to get damaged or tangled. Plus, you don’t have to worry about trying to find all the different types of cables you need individually; they’re all in one place. Sylex offers viable solutions for fibre bundles that cover all the mentioned advantages.
Polyester Braided Expandable Sleeving Bundle
This expandable braided sleeving, composed of lightweight yet durable polyester monofilaments, provides a cost- effective solution for covering bundles, wires, cables, and flexible tubing and enables their installation, protection, strengthening, improving, and assembly. This application provides range of covered sizes and expansion range of 35.0~66.0mm with an outer diameter of 45.0mm. The sleeving is applicable in all industries and can be used in challenging circumstances. The benefits of this solution are easy installation without the necessary using tool, good extensibility and flexibility. The disadvantage is weaker protection against mechanical loads.
Braided Cable Sleeves Self-Closing Bundle
Accessing the cables or wires inside is made simple through the self-closing 25% overlap design. Components may be inserted first, then built over them. The included black polyester fabric is both lightweight and abrasion resistant, and easily be cut with hot scissors or a knife. The smallest bundle diameter is 7.0mm, while the largest possible bundle diameter is 52.0mm. The benefits of this solution are easy installation without the necessary using tool, open construction, good extensibility and flexibility. The disadvantage is weaker protection against mechanical loads.
Slit Harness Wrap Bundle
This bundle guards against cable damage – providing crush protection in particular. It comes with a polyethylene quick cable wrap that makes installation simple. The uses and advantages of the Slit Harness Wrap include robust, long-lasting crush resistance for cable looms as well as prevention of wear and damage to cables without limiting flexibility. Possible bundle sizes are 6.0mm, 10.0mm, and 16.0mm. Disadvantages is using tool for the cables installing and low extensibility.
Z Rail Closure Bundle
Advantages with this solution is excellent resistance to abrasion, humidity, harsh chemicalss, and other stressors, these bundles are suited for all possible sectors of application. Self-extinguishing flame resistance per DIN 4102/B2. Bundle diameter size 16 mm with secured connection by a Z rail. Disadvantages is using tool for the cables installing and almost no extensibility.
Polyflex Pipe Bundle
Polyflex Pipe has exceptional shape retention and heat resistance, requires no wrapping tape at cable feeders or cable ends, is UV resistant, and is halogen-free along with advantages like robust and flexible construction. Appropriate applications involving high mechanical loads include switch cabinets, construction machines, ship and train construction, and body sections and chassis. Size range for the bundles with diameters 11.6mm and 16.3mm. As a disadvantage can consider low extensibility.
