Microtrenching is another technique used for underground installation of cable and/or conduit, generally on roadways or on private property for fibre to the home connections in urban environments. Microtrenching involves digging a narrow and shallow trench about 25-50 mm (1-2 inch) wide and 200-250 mm (8-10 inches) deep using a special cutting tool.

CONT

L'essor des réseaux de télécommunication à l'échelle mondiale implique une forte hausse des installations de fibre optique haut débit à usage commercial et domestique. Les entreprises de déploiement de fibre optique ont tendance à privilégier une pose enterrée afin de minimiser les risques des dommages dus aux intempéries. Le micro-tranchage est donc une solution idéale pour les zones urbaines congestionnées.

OBS

tranchage : Creusement de tranchées à l'aide d'une trancheuse.
