Fibre-optic building entries

Creating FTTB/H – Fibre Optic House Entrances with Hauff-Technik

The expansion of fibre optics represents a significant contemporary challenge. There is a pressing need for cost-effective, secure, and rapid solutions for fibre optic house entrances. Hauff-Technik offers the necessary components to establish Fibre to the Home (FTTH), facilitating a reliable fibre optic connection directly to residences. By leveraging innovative technologies, Hauff-Technik ensures efficient installations that cater to the growing demand for high-speed internet access in residential neighbourhoods.

Retrofit of Fibre Optic Cables into Buildings

Currently, the main focus is on retrofitting fibre optic connections in existing properties. This requires a technology that facilitates quick and efficient fibre optic house entries with minimal effort. Whether it involves a single-family home, a multi-family dwelling, or a multi-story building, Hauff-Technik's fibre optic transfer system is equipped to handle these installations. This system is also suitable for new constructions, providing a flexible solution for both retrofitting and new builds.

Hauff-Technik’s System for Fibre Optic Home Connections

Hauff-Technik presents the 2LINE G-BOX system, designed to facilitate the installation of fibre optic cables from the distribution point to the home entrance. Each component is thoughtfully engineered to work seamlessly together, providing all necessary parts for creating a fibre optic connection. This cohesive system not only streamlines the installation process but also ensures that both new constructions and existing buildings can easily benefit from high-speed fibre internet access.

Affordable and Professional Underground Installation of Fibre Optic Cables

The 2LINE G-BOX system from Hauff-Technik includes a well pipe set specifically designed for the underground installation of fibre optic cables. This set is compatible with all other components in the series and comes with sealing sleeves and fastening clips for connecting individual well pipes. This ensures a waterproof construction without needing additional accessories. The well pipes facilitate the creation of empty conduits for fibre optic cables, running from the street's distribution point to the fibre optic entry point of the building.

The core components of the 2LINE G-BOX system act as fibre optic handover points. These units are buried underground yet provide a permanent inspection shaft for future access. The covers are available in either cast iron or corrosion-resistant plastic, with maximum load capacities of 20 tons for cast iron and 12.5 tons for plastic. These covers can only be opened with special keys, ensuring that the fibre optic cables are protected from unauthorized access. The installation allows for individual adjustments through height adjustability, accommodating installation depths between 480 and 580 mm.

Beneath the core component, the introduction stopper is mounted with a precise snap-fit connection, allowing for tool-free installation. Up to four micro pipes can be housed in this introduction stopper. The sealing housing, which includes a cover and sleeve, is specifically designed for compatibility with both the core component and the introduction stopper. This enables a waterproof and gas-tight installation at the fibre optic handover points, achieving an IP68 protection rating.

During the installation phase, Hauff-Technik's pylons help protect the delicate fibre optic cables. Their bright orange color ensures high visibility. These pylons serve as temporary secure storage for the fibre cable depot or the 2LINE G-BOX cable system during installation. Special screws prevent unauthorized access and safeguard the data lines.

With its features, the 2LINE G-BOX system from Hauff-Technik allows for a swift setup of fibre optic home connections. No special tools are required, and cable overlengths can be stored professionally.

Implementing Fibre Optic House Entries with Hauff-Technik

Fibre optic cables are introduced underground through the foundation of the house. A cable duct serves as the interface between the interior and exterior. Hauff-Technik offers a variety of cable ducts and complete systems for the installation of utility lines in buildings. These solutions can be utilized for new constructions or retrofitted during fibre optic installations.

A key component of this system is the 2-LINE G-BOX termination point. This termination point is installed at the fibre optic line either inside or outside the building and can accommodate up to three LC duplex connectors and six LC pigtails. Designed specifically for fibre optic terminations, it allows for convenient storage of excess cable lengths in a separate box. The thoughtful design of the fibre routing minimizes unwanted signal attenuation. Additionally, the 2-LINE G-BOX termination point can be installed underground within the main component, providing flexibility and reliability in the installation process.
