Technology

TFO utilizes the best processes available to produce the various fibre types. A preform made in the VAD process (Vapour Axial Deposition) guarantees a single mode fibre with excellent optical and geometrical properties, an appropriate telecommunication medium for the coming decades, suitable for use in all existing cable concepts. Multimode fibres are made with the versatile MCVD process (Modified Chemical Vapour Deposition) enabling low loss and high bandwidth to serve in the most advanced data communication systems. TFO’s multimode fibres are protected with a dual layer coating of UV curable acrylate, especially designed to provide a low level of sensitivity to microbending.

An extensive quality inspection program performed during as well as after the production process guarantees the high quality of TFO optical fibres. The production process is governed by a certified quality management system conforming to ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 14001:1996. A logistical system coupled to the quality inspection database ensures that each fibre is matched to specific customer requirements. TFO gives full technical support to help successful processing and application of her fibres.
