2 3M™ One Pass Fibre Pathway

Your ideal partner to deliver fibre optic connectivity into brownfield high rise multi-dwelling units and officesFTTx installations in the UK are set to explode over the coming years and for both service providers and building owners represent an important revenue opportunity as users’ demands for high-speed broadband continues to accelerate across services such carrier telephony, highspeed internet access, video on demand (VoD),voice over the internet (VoIP), broadcast TV, High Definition TV and Online Gaming.However, behind the opportunity lies a fundamental challenge particularly in existing high rise multi-dwelling units (MDU) and offices. Many of these buildings were built without present-day telecommunications technology in mind and lack hidden conduits or false ceilings through which to pull cable, making it difficult to lay fibre in a secure or aesthetically pleasing way. And where conduits do exist, they are often overcrowded, making it difficult to add new drop cables. In most cases, new cable pathways will need to be laid in hallways for fibre optic cables in order to deliver fibre to individual units, often significantly adding to the cost of installation.

A breakthrough in high-rise optical fibre installation

This is why 3M has introduced the 3M™ One Pass Fibre Pathway, which provides an innovative solution to installing fibre-connectivity within buildings. The One Pass Fibre Pathway Duct is a surface-mount, adhesive-backed indoor drop cable and cable pathway system installed simultaneously in one pass around the perimeter of a multi-dwelling unit hallway meaning that service providers can install ‘One floor’ of fibre with ‘One Crew’ in just ‘One Pass’.

But the 3M One Pass solution doesn’t stop there; service providers and building owners can take fibre way beyond the confines of a hallway and deep into the living area, discreetly and with minimal effort with the 3MTM One Pass Mini Fibre Pathway. Small, discreet (almost invisible) and incredibly versatile. The 3M One Pass Mini Fibre Pathway is a single fibre, adhesive-backed, surface-mount cable pathway and drop cable solution connected to the hallway distribution cable and routed inside of a living unit or office to a wall outlet positioned near an optical network termination.

Since its launch several years ago the One Pass Fibre Pathway solutions have been successfully installed across the world, with typical project cost savings averaging 35% compared to traditional methods.

This technology has now been brought to the UK and is an integral part of the 3M range of FTTx solutions and products.
