Techlogiks armoured Loose tube cables are the product of choice as the backbone in Outside Plant (OSP) environments. Armoured cables are designed for improved mechanical and rodent protection in direct bury applications. The rugged loose tube design offers reliable transmission performance over a broad temperature range and design features optical Fibers placed inside a single gel-filled tube. An ECCS corrugated steel armoured is applied and a black outer jacket completes the cable construction. Rip cords are included under the armor for ease of access to the core tube.
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:
Easy Drop, Multiple network applications, Reduces cable prep and installation time, Reduces cost, Easy Installation
