To meet these demands, fiber optics companies and end users require tools and equipment that can increase the speed of deployment as well as simplify the management of these networks.<\/p>\n<p>Zeus helps support these market changes with high-performance polymer extrusions designed to get your fiber optics where you need them. Whether for patch cords, connectors, splicing, fan-out kits, connecting into closures, and more, Zeus products support easier connectivity and faster deployment.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a class=\"yellow button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/contact-us\">REQUEST A SAMPLE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h1>Low Friction Liners<\/h1>\n<h2>PTFE and FEP Extruded Tubing<\/h2>\n<p>Zeus offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/products\/extruded-tubing\/\">extruded tubing<\/a>\u00a0as low-friction liners made from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/materials\/ptfe\/\">PTFE<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/materials\/fep\/\">FEP<\/a> to ease the pushability of fibers over greater distances. These liners make fan-out kit connections easier while remaining unaffected by environmental extremes.<\/p>\n<h5>Key Benefits:<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Low Friction<\/li>\n<li>Low Water Absorption<\/li>\n<li>High Chemical Resistance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>Strain Management<\/h1>\n<h2>Heat Shrink<\/h2>\n<p>Rigorous environments or deployments involving moving parts can expose fiber optics to tugging, vibration, and other disturbances. These disruptions can cause attenuation, disconnects, and even total signal loss. Zeus provides\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/products\/heat-shrinkable-tubing\/\">heat shrink tubing<\/a>\u00a0in multiple forms to create a solid, tough encapsulation over fiber optic cable splice points and connection points to minimize strain and ensure connection integrity.<\/p>\n<h5>Key Benefits:<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Improved Strength at Connection Points<\/li>\n<li>Abrasion Resistance<\/li>\n<li>Protection From Harsh Chemicals at Weak Points<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>Encapsulation<\/h1>\n<h2>Dual-Shrink\u2122<\/h2>\n<p>For full encapsulation, Zeus\u2019 Dual-Shrink\u2122 provides a special dual-layer product:\u00a0 When Dual-Shrink\u2122 is heated, \u00a0the inner layer melts and reflows to encapsulate the underlying component. Simultaneously, the outer layer of Dual-Shrink\u2122 begins recovery, shrinking, and forcing the reflowing inner layer into and around the component. The result is a hermetic seal.<\/p>\n<p>Dual-Shrink\u2122 can be used to seal between connectors and boots to lock out water and chemicals, and it can also be used for protection at splice points.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/products\/heat-shrinkable-tubing\/dual-shrink\/\">Dual-Shrink\u2122<\/a>\u00a0is available in two configurations: a low temperature version featuring an EFEP inner layer with an FEP outer layer, and a higher temperature version with an FEP inner layer and PTFE outer layer.<\/p>\n<h5>Key Benefits:<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Solid Encapsulation<\/li>\n<li>Moisture Lock-Out<\/li>\n<li>Adds Strength to Splice Points<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><a class=\"yellow button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zeusinc.com\/contact-us\">REQUEST A SAMPLE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today\u2019s internet, multimedia, and proliferation of mobile devices have created a need for ever-larger bandwidth and expanded fiber optics networks.
