Outdoor distribution cable for duct or aerial lash installations along utility poles for cable television, telecom or other outside plant campus backbone applications
Applications
- Outdoor distribution cable for duct or aerial lash installations along utility poles for cable television, telecom or other outside plant campus backbone applications
Features
- Tight-buffered construction for easy, direct connector termination or splicing
- Polyethylene outer cable jacket for excellent UV and weather resistance
- High performance tight-buffer on the optical fibers for excellent environmental and mechanical protection
- Wide operating temperature of -40°C to +85°C
- 900µm buffer eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming installation of fanout kits or pigtail splices because connectors terminate directly to the fiber
- All-dielectric design does not require grounding or bonding
