Multi Loose Tube Cable

Strength member and bound under a pe jacket.

Multi loose tube cable.

From the picture below we can see that loose tube fiber holds more than one optical fiber each individually. Loose tube and tight buffered. The cable consists of 5 to 36 fi bers containing tubes or fi llers stranded in up to 3 layers around a central. Altos loose tube gel free all dielectric cable with fastaccess tm technology 4 fiber 62 5 µm multimode om1.

Mfr part fssl006nf. But there are two basic styles of fiber optic cable construction. Most common and widely used design. Sz stranding design allows for easy mid span access and isolate fibers from installation and environmental rigors.

The multi loose tube cable construction consists of up to 144 250µm optical fibers in 12 fiber gel filled loose tubes with fillers where appropriate sz stranded around a fiber reinforced plastic frp central strength member with waterswellable threads and waterswellable tape. The multi loose tube non metallic cable is designed for outside plant which is prone to electrical interference. Each tube contains 4 12 fi bers. Fiber optic cable is available in many physical variations such as single and multiple conductor constructions aerial and direct burial styles plenum and riser cables etc.

Multi loose tube cables in loose tube cables the coated fiber floats within a rugged abrasion resistant oversized tube which is filled with optical gel. Fiber optic cables are constructed in two ways. Loose tube fiber and tight buffered fiber. 6 f fx loose tube cable os2 outdoor osp black jacket black jacket.

Being a micro cable makes this cable suitable for blowing into microducts. Each however is designed for very different environments. Multi loose tube cables are typically used in building backbone access application networks. Multi loose tube fibre optic cables are ideal for outdoor communications long distance and local area network lan connections.

Add to cart add to list. Multi loose tube micro cable consists of up to 24 fibres within a gel filled central tube with water blocking glass yarns. Outdoor fiber optic cable. All our outdoor cables are strong robust and agile to deal with harsh environments direct burial and aerial applications.

Since the tube does not have direct contact with the fiber any cable material expansion or contraction will not cause stress on the fiber. Fiber count up to 144. Both contain a type of strengthening member such as aramid yarn stainless steel wire strands or gel filled sleeves. Strain free fibers in a stranded multi loose tube design.
