Dura-Line in a Connected World

Smart cities

A Smart City leverages technology to save energy and resources while improving efficiency and connectivity. By deploying smart cameras, sensors, and monitors, city officials are able to increase citizen engagement and resident satisfaction. The foundation of a Smart City starts with fiber optic cable placed in conduit, which allows for scaling to accommodate new technologies in the future.

Fiber Optic Sensing

Monitor temperature, strain, or vibration around the clock in real-time with a fiber optic sensing system. Fiber optic sensing monitors a fiber optic cable from a single location via pulses of light traveling down the fiber. It provides continuous 24/7 monitoring over long distances. The fiber itself is the sensor, so there are literally thousands of sensing points along the route.

Cellular / DAS II

As the density of cell towers increases to meet consumer demands, telecoms are maximizing resources within macro cells to reach wide area networks. As the need for broadband increases, the ability to locate land and construct costly towers is growing more difficult. To help offload the macro network, Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) are being implemented.

Project Highlight

Industrial

MicroDuct

To develop its continuous splice-free (zero points of network failure) air-jetting campus-wide network infrastructure, Denver International Airport (DIA, known locally as DEN) chose Dura-Line’s FuturePath 7-Way, consisting of seven individual MicroDucts bundled under one oversheath.

By air-jetting the exact fiber type and counts required in and out of the inner MicroDuct when and where needed, leaving unused pathways empty for future expansions, Denver International Airport created an already future-proofed, real-time, redundant network with no end to the fiber and bandwidth lifecycle.
