. zetta world Market developments Global competitiveness now depends on establishing and extending high-speed connectivity and the drive to lay fast cable networks is just taking off in many parts of the world. Given that we are so dependent on these networks, reliability is becoming increasingly With more data being transmitted over longer distances, more cables are required and smaller diameters are essential. Fiber-optic cables are the primary tool for both core and edge connections. At Teijin Aramid, we have over two decades of experience developing innovative aramid products that strengthen and protect such cables. As IP traffic grows, the demand forever higher transmission speeds will continue to grow. With our high-performance aramid Twaron, the industry can move beyond peta and exabytes into zettabytes Key benefits when using Twaron • Easy installation • Long cable lifetimes • Makes long spans possible • Ensures reliable connecterization • Enables minimum cable diameters • Water-blocking available

Meeting the need for future-proof cables Today's fiber-optic cables need enhanced protection and this is precisely what our high-performance aramid fiber Twaron provides. It has a set of unique properties that make it highly suitable for fiber optic applications. Twaron is now an integral part of the cable package. Ideal properties Twaron's high modulus value - combined with high strength - form a unique mix that's further enhanced by its dielectric properties and its resistance to corrosion and high temperatures. What's more, its flexibility facilitates reliable mechanical fixation of the cable,...
