Huawei shows a flexible optical silicone cable, a substitute for fiber, to facilitate wiring in the home

Today FTTH or “Fiber to the home” is common in many parts of our country, leaving behind already obsolete technologies such as ADSL through copper. The fiber reaches inside the home and connects to an ONT that transforms the signal to the router to be able to have our own WiFi or Ethernet network. However, wiring a house with Ethernet cable, especially if it is a few years old, can be a bit of a chore.

That’s where the Huawei’s new Fiber Optic technology for the Home, named Huawei FTTR (FIber to the Room) or “Fiber to the room”.

With a new system flexible silicone coated optical cables They are capable of transferring fiber optics at speeds of 1 Gbps to any place in the house in a very simple way, without the need to pass cables through the interior of the walls or through other installations in the home. In this way, you can connect different routers, access points and create a wired LAN and WiFi network with hardly any complex installations.

Of course, it is possible to run the cable through the interior of interior ducts, but being practically transparent, it is not necessary.

In this video that Huawei itself has provided us, we can see how its security system could be installed. home fiber optics in a simple way with a tool from the kit that pre-applies adhesive thermal at the same time you place the cable.

The wire it is very thin and practically invisible having a finish translucent. It allows angles with radii of only 5 mm and there is no need to pass it through any tube or previous telephone or electrical installation, since it can be glued directly to the corners of the ceiling or floor using a thermal adhesive, or even on the tile joints.

In this way, we avoid the often complicated process of passing ethernet cable or plastic fiber optics throughout our home. At the moment we do not know the price of the installation kit and its arrival on the market.
