Cable Blowing Services

Cable Blowing Services – EXPERTS IN THE INDUSTRY

With decades of experience in the industry, TNS Comms is a leader in efficiently blowing fiber optic cables of various sizes using state-of-the-art equipment and precise airflow techniques. Our team has successfully installed over 1 million kilometers of cables, ranging from 12 to 576 fibers, showcasing our commitment to excellence and reliability in every project we undertake.

On one project alone in 3 months we blew a new fibre network exceeding 280 kilometres of 576 fibre in many challenging environments in a new directly buried sub duct network.

The distances achieved depends on the route of the network and the quality of the installation of the sub duct or directly buried duct. The problem becomes known when testing the route prior to blowing and air pressure testing routes prior to any cable blowing activities. Unfortunately, not all civil contractors understand and follow the correct procedures of laying duct and sub duct. This has a huge impact on the end client, who needs to get cables in the ground to light up their networks ready for service so they can start earning revenue from the new networks they deploy.

Cable blowing has many advantages over conventional cable pulling techniques and is far superior, allows for quicker deployments and can be blown further from central locations and reduces the need for additional splicing.

Our cabling teams carry out sub duct and cable installations and termination of ancillaries, we carry out all pre checks prior to installation and identify issues like blockages and complete A55 documentation to allow our experienced civils engineering teams to quickly clear them.

By using TNS for your cable blowing you will be using our experienced operatives, who are trained to blow various cables through the network the cabling teams have experience on working Openreach Network, City Fibre Network, VX Fibre to name a few.
