Fire Protection Fiber Optic Communication
Since February 2026, the new VDE Guideline 0800-730 applies, developed specifically for fibre optic installations in safety-critical buildings. Certified to B2ca CPR and FE180 fire-resistance standards, these cables maintain optical integrity under extreme. Fireproof fiber optics are specialized cables engineered to withstand high temperatures and resist fire propagation. Fibre optic fire service and emergency response network solutions must deliver maximum availability with simultaneous failover protection – modern emergency control centres therefore rely on modular fibre optic systems with up to 96 fibres per 1U and redundant connections to IEC 61754-15. By using the highest classification for all cable types that fulfils all requirements, the process will be simplified for building a communication network that is.
