Description:

Tight-buffered fiber distribution cable consists of several tight-buffered fibers consolidated in a single cable. Compared with the bare fiber, the tight-buffered fiber is coded with an additional 900um layer over the 250um fibers for protection. Generally, the tight-buffered distribution cable comes in various fiber counts ranging from 2 to 144 fibers. According to different application requirements, these cables are usually plenum (OFNP) or riser (OFNR) rated but can also be constructed as an indoor/outdoor or low-smoke (LSZH) cable. These cables are intended for riser application in multi storey buildings and are an integral part of the end-to-end fiber optic solution, designed to support enhanced data needs along with future advancing network requirements.

 

 

 

 

Description:

In breakout cable, a tightly buffered fiber is surrounded by aramid yarn and a jacket, typically PVC. These single-fiber subunit elements are then covered by a common sheath to form the breakout cable. They are made of several simplex cables bundled together inside a common jacket. This is a strong and rugged design. It is suitable for conduit runs, riser and plenum applications. It’s perfect for industrial applications where ruggedness is needed. “The cable within a cable” and because each fiber is individually reinforced, this design allows for quick termination to connectors and does not require patch panels or boxes. Breakout cable can be more economic where fiber count isn’t too large and distances too long, because is requires so much less labor to terminate. Breakout cable is a favorite where rugged cables are desirable or direct termination without junction boxes, patch panels or other hardware is needed.
