The FIST (Fibre Infrastructure System Technology) philosophy calls for a “Total Fibre Management Solution” which accommodates the following network requirements:
A stable optical platform
Network flexibility to suit different applications.
Flexibility to accept changes in fibre infrastructure (future proof).
An end-to-end system solution
Improved quality of service
Easy integration with existing fibre networks
Cost effectiveness.
The updated FIST MK2 maintains the same system philosophy. However, a number of innovative capabilities and new features have been added:
Compatibility with all common cable constructions; e.g. loose tube, central core, ribbon, etc
Single circuit or ribbon management of uncut fibres
Reduction of installation time up to 30%
Increase of fibre density and configuration flexibility in Outside Plant network elements
Provision for controlled single circuit and single element fibre management for in-line network elements
