With the rapid development of information technology, the demand for high-speed and stable networks in modern society is steadily increasing.

Fiber optic networks, with their ultra-high transmission capacity and stability, have become the mainstream choice in the telecommunications industry. Especially in densely populated areas, busy traffic zones, or regions with high aesthetic demands, underground fiber optic cables are increasingly used for their hidden, secure, and interference-resistant properties. However, as fiber optic network layouts continue to expand, the management and maintenance of underground cables are also facing significant challenges.

Drawbacks of Traditional Management Methods

Traditional methods of fiber optic cable positioning mainly rely on manual measurement or simple markers. While they may be effective in some cases, when cables are buried deeply or in complex areas, the accuracy and efficiency of the positioning are often insufficient. Moreover, during later underground construction or excavation activities, an inability to accurately locate cables can lead to accidental digging, damaging the cables and disrupting network service stability.

RFID Ball Marker – A Precise, Efficient, and Reliable Solution

The introduction of the Ball Marker, based on low-frequency RFID technology, effectively solves these issues. This passive product remains dormant when not in use and is activated by external devices when needed. Each marker features a unique ID code (optional) as an identification marker for the buried fiber optic cables. It enables precise location, identification, and management of underground cables, helping establish a digitalized cable management system. Key advantages include:

  • Passive Technology, Waterproof, and Temperature Resistance: The RFID marker uses passive technology, requiring no maintenance, and is resistant to extreme temperatures. Its lifespan matches that of the pipeline, making it suitable for harsh environments.
  • Unique ID Code (Optional): Each marker carries a unique ID code for easy management, ensuring the security and traceability of pipeline data.
  • Fast Reading and Long-range Coverage: The system can quickly read marker information and upload data to the backend management system in real time, ensuring a rapid response to changes.
  • Non-visual Reading: The marker can be read without relying on visibility, making it suitable for environments where warning signs, barcodes, or nameplates cannot be used.

Whether for telecom operators or industries involved in underground construction, this product simplifies, secures, and enhances the efficiency of fiber optic network operations and maintenance.
