"LOOSE" reinforced optical fibre
For outdoors installation
Data transmission optical fibre cables OM1 OM2 OM3 OS1 (multimode and singlemode)
4 to 24 fibres - outdoors installation - steel reinforcement - PE jacket
62.5/125 OM1, 50/125 OM2, 50/125 OM3, 9/125 OS1
DESCRIPTION
This optical fibre cable features a simple, but very robust construction. The fibres themselves are coated with a 250 micron thick
coloured acrylate which facilitates identification, and are bundled in a single PTB tube with a waterproof sheath, filled with a gel which
provides mechanical and hydroscopic protection. The entire assembly is contained in a corrugated steel tube covered with a black PE
jacket for UV resistance. The cable is further reinforced by two steel strength members for increased traction resistance.
CHARACTERISTICS
Corrugated steel tube
Coloured fibres for quick identification
Double steel strength member for increased traction resistance

Black jacket for UV resistance
1800 N traction resistance
Waterproof internal layer
APPLICATION
Suited for installation in indoors and outdoors cable ducts and overhead supports.
Suited for use on campus backbones, building backbones, horizontal cabling
Suited for high density sites and fusion splicing
Compact structure, suited for installation in limited areas such as duct pipes.
