Fibre optic cable that can be bend and deploy as copper cable

ClearCurve is a breakthrough in the fibre optic cable, which now allow fibre cables to be bent without losing signal. This will pave the deployment of fibre optic in the last mile, such as FFTH of the telecommunication network, to replace the old and bandwidth restricted copper cable. Fibre optics cable transmitting medium is light, thus the bandwidth potential is almost infinite, it’s dependent on the transceiver device and wavelength (colour) chosen.
