B-Series Breakout – Field Broadcast Rodent Deterrent (FRP) Cables

Installation zone RECOMMENDATION

Deployable cable that is ideal for use in harsh environments where deployment and retrieval for reuse are required for temporary broadcast networks
Used in areas susceptible to damage from small non-burrowing rodents

Applications

Deployable cable that is ideal for use in harsh environments where deployment and retrieval for reuse are required for temporary broadcast networks
Used in areas susceptible to damage from small non-burrowing rodents

Features

Includes a layer of fiberglass yarn that provides and effective deterrent to damage caused by small non-burrowing rodents
FRP is ideal for use for surface installations (not recommended for direct burial applications)
Broadcast cables made in a variety of colors for easy identification or to blend into the environment
Breakout cable design with individual color-coded subcables protecting each optical fiber
2.0mm subcables are standard
2 to 24 fibers, high fiber counts available on request
Compact round cable design for ease of transportation and deployment
Helically stranded cable core for flexibility, deployment survivability, and excellent mechanical protection for the optical fibers
Cables are suitable for use with single, as well as multi-channel connectors
Excellent crush resistance to withstand crowd and vehicle traffic
High tensile load ratings for quick deployment and retrieval
Water, fungus, and UV resistant for extreme environments
Outdoor, field-proven cables are easily deployed and retrieved for remote news gathering and sporting events
Standard Polyurethane (C), Flame-Retardant Tactical Polyurethane (V), and Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (G) jackets are available

OCC PROVIDED OPTIONS

Broadcast cables are pre-spooled on deployable reels for ready-to-use product
Broadcast cables can be pre-terminated with single fiber or ruggedized multi-channel connectors upon request
