What is Façade Installation for Fiber Optic Networks?
Façade installation involves the strategic embedding of fiber optic cables within the exterior surfaces of buildings, seamlessly weaving digital connectivity into the fabric of urban landscapes. Unlike traditional methods that require extensive trenching and disruptive construction, façade installation offers a refined solution that minimizes visual disruption while maximizing network coverage.
Advantages:
- Minimal Disruption: Façade installation minimizes disruption to the surrounding environment and occupants, ensuring a seamless urban integration.
- Aesthetic Integrity: The discreet nature of façade installation preserves the building's aesthetic while delivering cutting-edge connectivity.
- Rapid Deployment: Compared to traditional trenching methods, façade installation offers faster deployment, reducing construction timelines.
- Flexibility and Scalability: Facade installation supports future scalability, allowing for network expansion without extensive construction work.
- Enhanced Connectivity: By seamlessly integrating fiber optic networks, facade installation enhances connectivity, enabling high-speed data transmission.
Why choose façade installation?
For speed of deployment and ease of access to end-users, Façade installation is often one of the quickest methods of passing homes. Particular benefits are sought in dense urban environments where it is difficult to deploy fiber underground due to restrictions on permitting, historic restrictions on digging, or shallow utilities.

LC-TT™ Twist-On - Twist-Off Connector
LC-TT (Twist-On - Twist-Off). The front body can be twisted on and off the main connector body allowing the connector to be fed through a 5mm hole. Ideal for passing through pre-drilled walls.
ETB with QWKlink Reel
A compact, wall-mounted access point for FTTH networks, the ETB features an integrated cable reel for fast, secure installations and tidy slack management. Ideal for use with microducts or trunking, it supports pre-terminated fibre and LC/SC adaptor mounts for quick customer connections.
REVOLink3™ Microcable
REVOLink3 is designed for superior performance and effortless installation, making it the ideal solution for modern network deployments and last-mile connectivity. Featuring a versatile 3-in-One design supporting blowing, pulling, and pushing techniques.
Thick Wall Microduct
Thick Wall Microducts are highly durable and can be directly buried without extra protection at branch-offs or inline connections.
Thin Wall Microduct
Thin-Wall Microducts are frequently deployed in pre-existing ducts with constrained space, where thick-walled ducts cannot fit. These ducts boast a narrower diameter, making them ideal for air-blown fiber installations.
MDU Small Distribution Wall Box
The Small Distribution Wall Box (SDWB) is a wall-mounted enclosure designed for distributing fibres to up to six customer drop cables. Each customer connection is managed on an individual splice tray, capable of holding up to four splices.
MDU Medium Distribution Wall Box
The Medium Distribution Wall Box (MDWB) is a wall-mounted splice enclosure designed for distributing fibre to customer drop cables in MDU Scenarios. It has a capacity of up to 168 fibre splices and can accommodate input cables of both butt and in-line types.
MDU Large Distribution Wall Box
The Large Distribution Wall Box (LDWB) is a wall-mounted splice enclosure designed for distributing fibre to customer drop cables in MDU Scenarios. It has a capacity of up to 240 fibre splices and can accommodate input cables of both butt and in-line types.
Boundary Wall Box - Slack Storage
The Boundary Wall Box Slack Storage is a versatile storage box deployed in the FTTX network. The box can be used to store the slack from pre-terminated drop cables or fibre modules at the end of a riser cable.
Boundary Wall Box
Boundary Wall Box is an IP55 termination point, installed as outside plant on walls and fences in the FTTX Network.
