LAN

Providing the World’s Most Advanced
Fiber Optic Infrastructure and
Connectivity Solutions for a 21st
Century Campus-Wide LAN

Every facet of technology has and continues to change and advance at lightning speed, except for two — the decades old fiber optic installation methods that actually support those advanced technologies and antiquated connectivity solutions.

That is…until now.  Sumitomo has solved the limitations of traditional fiber optic cabling and connectivity to launch your network into the 21st Century with its revolutionary:

     • FutureFLEX® Air-blown Fiber® — an environmentally
        green, complete end-to-end, splice-free optical fiber and pathway
        solution for today’s ever-changing fiber optic network, featuring
        true, real-time scalability with  ” bandwidth on demand” plus
        much more.

     • Lynx2 CustomFit® Splice-On Connectors — for customized,
        on-site exact cable builds and terminations facilitating faster
        installations & MACs, faster repairs & restoration, and better
        performance for less downtime…without the shorts & slack
        and logistic delays of preterminated cables.

Why the Pentagon, White House, Mayo Clinic, Con Edison, ESPN, CNN, Ford Motor Company, ConocoPhillips, Johns Hopkins University, DFW Airport, Mayo Clinic and Many Other Customers Choose FutureFLEX Air-Blown Fiber?

Unlike old traditional optical fiber structured cabling systems, FutureFLEX  

      • Provides virtually unlimited pathway, fiber, and bandwidth capacity

       Blows at speeds of up to 150 ft. per minute the exact type and
         count of fiber required whenever and wherever needed in MINUTES
         versus the days or weeks associated with a traditional cable pull for
         REAL-TIME BANDWIDTH on DEMAND

      • Provides easy lightning speed fiber installations, upgrades, MACs, and
         reconfigurations  at any time even in hazardous, highly secure, and
         limited access areas

      • Delivers the industry’s ONLY Renewable, Reusable, and Sustainable
         fiber optic system that has no end to the fiber or bandwidth life cycle
         — fiber type blown out undamaged can be immediately recycled or
         reused in another part of the network

      • Eliminates  construction work, lifting of ceiling tiles, re-entrance into
         conduit, and all  physical disruption to the facility addressing the
         safety issues of industry and the infectious disease concerns of
         healthcare

      • Provides 38 reusable fiber pathways in a 4-inch conduit versus 3
         non-reusable associated with conventional cabling, solving congested
         conduit and duct bank problems… and the need to ever install
         new conduit

      • Saves 70 to 90% of the time and cost of optical fiber projects
         associated with traditional fiber optic structured cabling systems

      • Integrates easily with your existing cabling system

      • Plus much more

Achieve Optimum Speed, Reliability, Fast Repair & Restoration, and Cost Efficiencies without the Risk of Shorts & Slack and Logistic Delays of Preterminated Cables

High performance connectivity has never been more important for the reliability of the enterprise LAN as it pushes the envelope with ever increasing speeds and continually increasing high density, bandwidth-rich demands.

With average cost-per-minute of downtime exceeding thousands of dollars, optimum reliability, readiness, and the ability to repair and restore quickly and efficiently with very limited downtime are central issues for today’s mission critical enterprise LANs.

As the company to have introduced the industry’s first MPO Splice-On Connector — the industry’s very first non-mechanical MPO field installable connector  — Sumitomo Electric Lightwave has led the way in customized, on-site connectivity.
