CPR Cables - Market
Competition
• Only dry tube solutions (few suppliers, limited options)
• Water-blocking issues
• Gel-filled loose tubes in the market
Max Eca for Stranded Loose Tube
Max Dca for Central Tube
Adv. of gel-filled tube:
• Water-blocking / Universal
• Protecting fibres
Draka is the only supplier for Cca/B2ca metal-free fibre with gel-filled tubes
Draka is the only supplier for Cca/B2ca up to 144 fibres
