The C Fiber Service Node Cable assemblies are manufactured using FFT (Floating Fibre Technology). When furcation tubes are glued to the end, or the cable fiber bending during temperature changes may cause increased attenuation. With FFT, the fibers are free to move within the transition piece and furcation tubing as the cable expands and contracts. This eliminates any attenuation changes due to fiber bending at the transition point during temperature changes.
