Submarine & tunnel fiber optic cable solutions

AXELERON™ FO 1311 NT is a new thermoplastic high-density polyethylene compound that creates high-performance, UV stabilized natural jackets for cable protection. It combines the excellent physical properties and low moisture vapor transmission commonly associated with Dow polyolefin-based cable jacket materials - providing superior protection.

Micro fiber optic cable solutions

AXELERON™ DGDA-6320 BK EXP2 is a high-density polyethylene jacket compound for micro or mini fiber optic cables. This compound provides easy processability, low shrinkage characteristics, weather resistance, and a good balance of toughness, coefficient of friction (COF). AXELERON™ 6321, 6322 and 6323 are tailor-made products based on 6320 to offer very low COF and enable laser printability.

Azo free physical foam cable

AXELERON™ DGDK-6926 NT EXP1 is a high-density polyethylene cellular insulation compound for use in physical foaming processes with an Azo-free nucleator for high-end data cables, such as Cat 7, SFP, etc. It is fully pre-compounded with all the necessary ingredients needed to ensure top-tier performance.
