Broadband

 

Broadband is driven by fiber. Older copper technology simply can't compete with the speed, bandwidth and reliability of optical-based connections.

  • Unlike traditional copper-based broadband with slow uploads, fiber provides equally fast upload and download speeds that are ideal for streaming high-definition media, video conferencing, cloud storage and large file transfers. 
  • Fiber handles huge amounts of data, allowing multiple users and devices to stream or game simultaneously without lag. 
  • Fiber is immune to the signal-killing and latency inducing electromagnetic interference, radio frequency interference and ground loops.  
  • Fiber is also immune to static electricity and surges, protecting remote connections and outdoor cable drops.
  • Fiber provides a future-forward upgrade path, eliminating the need to redesign network infrastructures and pull new cables to accommodate tomorrow's technology. 

For these reasons, fiber-based cables and connectivity products have become the platform of choice for broadband designs and integrations. But with so many optical suppliers, why choose Cleerline? 

 

Safe and Simple Cable Termination

Cleerline SSF cable delivers the easiest termination experience in the industry. Its patented glass-encapsulated-by-polymer construction literally allows "hands-on" cable preparation without the worry of glass shards and strand breakage. Technicians using Cleerline experience 30% faster termination times without compromising termination integrity. 

 

Affordable, Field-Ready Mechanical Connectors

Cleerline mechanical APC connectors are universally compatible with all major fiber cables and constructions. Plus, they don't require expensive and proprietary tools, and can be re-terminated up to five times without measurable loss. 

 

Cables that Survive Real-World Installation

Job sites aren't delicate, but unfortunately most fiber-based cables are. Patented Cleerline SSF cables deliver a 2000x greater flex rating, 1500x better impact rating, an industry-leading 2.2mm bend radius and superior pull-strength and temperature ratings compared to traditional bend-insensitive fiber. It's the only cable that literally survives being tied in a knot.

 

Cables that Survive Outdoor and Harsh Environments

Fiber and water don't mix -- and this can greatly diminish product life in outdoor installations and harsh environments. Wet and humid conditions cause micro-fractures in optical glass, and over time these fractures will degrade system performance and even render optical cables unusable. The glass-encapsulated-by-polymer construction of Cleerline SSF eliminates water egress, ensuring systems continue to perform reliably. Plus, SSF is rated for extreme temperatures from -75 to 158°F (-60 to 85°C).

 

Thinner Cables for Tougher Cable Paths

Whether tackling a retrofit or trying to accommodate a new overcrowded back box, Cleerline manufactures the strongest, thinnest cables in the industry. SSF and BendSafe products survive the rigors of in-wall fishing expeditions and can easily be coiled in single-gang wall boxes. 


Drop Cables that Don't Require Micro-Armor

Broadband integrations frequently rely on heavy and expensive micro-armored cables for outdoor runs, open trays and stapling-in-place. Cleerline SSF delivers a stronger optical strand without the need for stainless steel jacketing. Plus, Cleerline manufactures innovative outdoor-rated, lightweight cable constructions including ruggedized and double jacket. 


High-Density Patch Cords Delivering Better Airflow

Cleerline manufactures the industry's strongest, micro-diameter patch cords designed specifically for high-density data center deployment. Patch cords built with SSF support 1.2mm micro-diameter constructions without sacrificing strength and durability -- that's up to 60% more space for airflow in a crowded rack. 

 

Made-in-the-USA

Based in Missoula, Montana, Cleerline manufactures an extensive portfolio of indoor, outdoor and plenum-rated products in the United States. Products are TAA-compliant and conform to BEAD and BABA requirements. 

 

Less Service Calls Deliver Happier Customers

Cleerline doesn't just deliver a cable immune to EM interference, RF interference, static, surges and lightning, our patented SSF construction also delivers a cable with a 50+ year life expectancy that's resistant to the micro-fractures that commonly degrade traditional fiber performance over time. Systems commissioned with Cleerline stay commissioned.
