Directional Bore Installation

Directional boring is a highly efficient method of placing ducts and MicroDuct bundles in established commercial and residential areas. This method involves boring pits at predetermined spacing intervals with minimal disruption of paved or landscaped surfaces.

Applications
Long Haul
Fiber to the Home
Cellular / DAS
Smart Cities
LARGE DIRECTIONAL DRILL OPERATION

Use this method for drilling of large diameter or multiple single or bundled ducts and MicroDucts in situations such as river or culvert crossings, under paved roads or lots where other excavation methods are not practical or desirable. The pull-back reamer is typically sized 50% larger than the duct or bundle diameter to ensure clearance.

FTTH & OSP UPGRADE INSTALLATIONS

Use a smaller directional drilling unit for less-intrusive placing of ducts and MicroDucts for providing fiber-to-the-home or, business (FTTH, FTTB) applications, as well as expanding or upgrading general telco or CATV services in established or old infrastructure areas.

MicroDucts HDPE (DuraMicro HDPE) maximise the versatility of your existing conduit system and allow you to create new direct-buried pathways. Each MicroDuct provides a pathway for fibre now or in the future so you can expand your network as demand grows. We offer MicroDucts HDPE in two variations: the MicroDucts HDPE DB (Direct Buried) range was created to withstand impact, and can be buried directly, while MicroDucts HDPE DI (Direct Install) are designed to be installed by pulling, blowing, or pushing into existing conduit systems. MicroDucts HDPE can be used in bundles, forming FuturePath HDPE (DuraMulti).

FuturePath HDPE (DuraMulti) is an easy-to-handle bundle of MicroDucts HDPE. The removable polyethylene oversheath allows access to individual MicroDuct pathways for uncomplicated branching. Utilising common conduit placement techniques, the unique shape simplifies direct-buried (DB) installations. FuturePath HDPE comes standard with an orange oversheath and individual coloured MicroDucts HDPE for easy identification.

FuturePath Flex (DuraFlat) consists of DB (Direct Buried) MicroDucts in a flat configuration connected with a thin webbing. This unique shape, with thin profile, is primarily used in MicroTrenching applications. Its flexible design also allows FuturePath Flex to be direct buried and utilized in long-haul applications. Microducts uncoil without spiraling off the drum.
