SUMITOMO 110126G01 12-FIBER, MM, LOOSE TUBE DIELECTRIC PER FOOT NEW Product Description
Loose tube cables are the product of choice as the backbone in Outside Plant (OSP) environments. The rugged loose tube design offers reliable transmission performance over a broad temperature range. Optical fibers are placed inside filled buffer tubes containing PFM™ gel. The core is constructed by stranding the buffer tubes around a central member using a reverse oscillating lay (ROL). The core is wrapped with flexible strength members covered with a water blocking tape, then encased with a black jacket. A rip cord is included under the jacket for ease of entry.
