In the era of 5G, IoT, and Hyperscale Data Centers, the 288 Core Fiber Optic Cable has become the backbone of modern metropolitan networks. Unlike lower fiber counts, the 288-core configuration offers the perfect balance between high-density data transmission and physical duct space optimization. Currently, Tier-1 telecom operators across North America, Europe, and Asia are prioritizing 288-core deployments to future-proof their infrastructure against the surging demand for bandwidth.
The industry is shifting from traditional loose-tube designs to Ribbon Fiber and micro-diameter cables. As urban areas become more congested, the need for "More Fiber in Less Space" has driven the development of 288 Core cables with smaller outer diameters (OD), allowing for easier installation in existing 1.25-inch or 2-inch conduits. Furthermore, the trend toward sustainable manufacturing and halogen-free (LSZH) materials is becoming a standard requirement for indoor/outdoor transition cabling.
288 Core cables are primarily utilized in Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) rings, Data Center Interconnects (DCI), and FTTH feeder lines. In smart city projects, these cables serve as the primary artery connecting central offices to local distribution hubs. Their robust design allows for both underground duct installation and aerial deployment (ADSS/GYTC8S), making them versatile for diverse geographical terrains, from humid tropical regions to freezing northern climates.
Established in 2012 in Hong Kong as a hi-tech communication enterprise, Kocent Optec Limited has grown into one of China's leading fiber optic termination product manufacturers and solution providers.
We are dedicated to developing and manufacturing fiber optic communication products ranging from passive to active categories for telecommunication networks, enterprise networks, and data centers. By leveraging our extensive experience and excellent production capacity, we magnify the outcome for our valuable customers, expanding their core competencies and helping them outperform competitors.
State-of-the-art facility for high-density patch cords and fanout assemblies, essential for 288 Core cable terminations in data centers.
Advanced electronics assembly for transceivers (SFP, SFP+, QSFP28, OSFP) compatible with Cisco, Huawei, and ZTE hardware.
Precision manufacturing of optical splitters, CWDM/DWDM Mux-Demux, and optical adapters for FTTH deployments.
Industrial molding and assembly for Fiber Distribution Boxes and Splice Closures, ensuring IP68 protection for outdoor environments.
Kocent Optec provides a consultative approach to engineering custom cables. We ensure that each customized solution meets your specific project needs while maintaining high standards of quality and performance.
According to your requests, we provide ODM services for Outdoor, Indoor, FTTH, and Tactical 288 Core cables. We can customize the armor (Steel tape, PSP), strength members (FRP, Steel wire), and jacket materials (PE, LSZH, HDPE).
We provide personalized logo printing, customized cable drumming (1km, 2km, or 4km per reel), and specific color-coding according to TIA/EIA-598 standards or local requirements.
Beyond the raw cable, we provide pre-terminated 288 Core assemblies, MTP/MPO trunk cables, and compatible connectivity hardware like patch panels and splice closures to ensure a seamless "Plug and Play" experience.
1. Cost Efficiency: Our location in the heart of the global fiber optic supply chain allows us to source premium glass preforms (Corning, YOFC, or OFS) at competitive rates, passing the savings directly to our clients.
2. R&D Speed: We can move from a technical drawing to a prototype within days, much faster than western competitors, ensuring your project timeline stays on track.
3. Strict Quality Control: 100% of our 288 Core Fiber Optic Cables are tested for attenuation, tensile strength, and water penetration. We follow mature scientific methods to ensure zero-defect shipments.
4. Compatibility: Our active components (SFP/QSFP) are compatible with over 50 brands of switches, including Cisco, Huawei, ZTE, H3C, Juniper, and more.
Note: Above ODM/OEM service will base on MOQ request for difference products, please discuss the details of MOQ with our sales team.
