Single Mode Multi-Tube Armoured Fiber Optic Cables

Single Mode Multi-Tube Armoured Fiber Optic Cables

Techlogiks armoured loose tube cables are the product of choice as the backbone in Outside Plant (OSP) environments. The rugged loose tube design offers reliable transmission performance over a broad   temperature range.  Optical Fibers and water-blocking elements are placed inside buffer tubes. The core is constructed by stranding the buffer tubes around a central member.  The core is wrapped with flexible strength members covered with a polyester tape then encased with a black inner jacket. An ECCS armoured is applied and a black outer jacket completes the cable construction. Rip cords are included under the inner jacket and  armoured for ease of entry.

Standards Compliance:

Telecordia GR-20, IEC 60794, EIA/TIA, ITU-T, EN187000, RUS1755.900

Applications:

Direct bury and underground duct, Trunk, distribution and feeder cable, Local Loop, Metro, Long-haul and broadband network.

Advantages:

High Fiber density, Multiple network applications, Reduces cable prep and installation time, Reduces the number of tools required, Improves compressive strength  and rodent  protection.
