Description

Bulk Fiber, Single Mode, OS2 9/125, Distribution Cable, OFNR Riser Rated, Indoor/Outdoor, Tight Buffer, Black Outer Jacket

This riser distribution fiber cable is ideal for Indoor/outdoor applications. The tight-bound, tight-buffered design allows the fiber cables to be installed in intra-building backbone and inter-building campus locations without costly transitions between cable types. It's ideal for configurations requiring a single termination point with multiple fibers. The riser distribution fiber cable uses high performance components and construction and is UL Listed in accordance with NEC sections 770.179(b) for use in vertical runs in building riser shafts or from floor to floor.

Single Mode Fiber Information

Single mode fiber cable (Synonyms mono-mode optical fiber, single-mode fiber, single-mode optical waveguide, uni-mode fiber) is a single strand of glass fiber with a diameter of 8.3 to 10 microns that has one mode of transmission. Single mode fiber has a relatively narrow diameter, through which only one mode will propagate typically 1310 or 1550nm wavelengths. Single mode fibers carry higher bandwidth than multimode fiber, but require a light source with a narrow spectral width. Single-mode fiber gives you a higher transmission rate and up to 50 times more distance than multimode. The small core and single light-wave virtually eliminate any distortion that could result from overlapping light pulses, providing the least signal attenuation and the highest transmission speeds of any fiber cable type.

Applications:

Indoor/outdoor tight-bound tight-buffered design allows cables to be installed in intra-building backbone and inter-building campus locations without costly transitions between cable types
Ideal configuration for a single termination point requiring multiple fibers

Cost Savings

900 micron buffer eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming installation of fanout kits or pigtail splices because connectors terminate directly to the fiber
No need to splice outdoor cable to indoor cable at building entrance
High crush resistance may eliminate the need for innerduct

Features

High performance components and construction
Cable materials are indoor/outdoor - UL-listed OFNR and UV, water and fungus resistant
UL Listed in accordance with NEC section 770.179(b) for use in vertical runs in building riser shafts or from floor to floor
Wide operating temperature range of -40ºC to +85ºC
Helically stranded core for greater flexibility and mechanical protection of the optical fibers
High strength-to-weight ratio
2-144 fiber configuration is smaller and lighter than comparable sub-grouped cables made by others: ideal for installation in areas with limited space or tight bends
Can be armored for additional protection in direct burial and aerial installations
Interlocking armor can be applied to cables as an alternative to conduit installation
