Linear Corporation 120486G01 | Loose Tube Single Jacket Single Armor

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. A corrugated steel armor is applied and then encased with a black jacket. Rip cords are included under the armor for ease of entry.
