Every installation is carefully planned to ensure maximum performance, minimal downtime, and a reliable foundation for business operations.
Specialist Fibre Cable Floating Services
One of Spectrum Fibre Solutions' core capabilities is professional fibre cable floating services.
Cable floating is an advanced installation method used to deploy fibre optic cables through existing ducts and pathways efficiently and accurately. This technique allows for faster cable installation while reducing physical strain on the fibre and minimising disruption to existing infrastructure.
Our fibre floating capabilities allow us to complete complex installations where traditional pulling methods may not be suitable.
Spectrum utilises specialised floating equipment, including the Plumett Microjet PR-196, designed for controlled fibre cable deployment. This equipment supports cable sizes ranging from 3.5mm to 8.5mm, allowing precise installation across various fibre network requirements.
Using the correct floating equipment for the cable specification is essential, as different machines are designed for different cable sizes and installation environments.
Fibre Fusion Splicing for Reliable Connectivity
Alongside floating, fusion splicing is one of Spectrum Fibre Solutions' core services.
Fusion splicing creates a permanent connection between fibre optic cables by precisely aligning and joining the optical fibres. This process requires specialist equipment and technical expertise to achieve low-loss, high-performance connections.
Professional fusion splicing ensures:
- Reduced signal loss
- Improved network reliability
- Stronger long-term connections
- Consistent fibre performance
- Greater network stability
Every fibre connection is tested and verified to ensure it meets required performance standards before final commissioning.
Underground Fibre Installation Solutions
Many fibre infrastructure projects require secure and protected cable routes. Underground fibre installation provides a durable solution for businesses, industrial sites, campuses, and remote locations where environmental protection and long-term reliability are essential.
Our underground fibre installation services include:
- Fibre route planning
- Duct infrastructure deployment
- Cable installation
- Fibre splicing
- Testing and certification
By combining professional planning with specialised installation techniques, Spectrum delivers fibre networks designed to perform in demanding environments.
