Corning 288 to 864 Fiber Singlemode Altos Ribbon Armored Cable

Corning 288 to 864 Fiber Singlemode Altos Ribbon Armored Cable

Product Details

Corning’s ALTOS® ribbon cables are based upon the reliable stranded loose tube cable construction that has long been an industry standard. Ribbon stacks are contained within color-coded buffer tubes stranded around a central member, enabling isolated access to individual stacks using methods and procedures familiar to installers and technicians. The SZ-stranded, flexible buffer tubes also isolate ribbons from installation and environmental rigors.

Corning is one of only two ribbon cable manufacturers to offer a stranded tube design with fiber counts up to 1728. Ribbon cables enable mass-fusion splicing, with 12 fibers spliced in a single procedure for easier fiber management, faster network builds and quicker restoration following fiber/cable cuts. Each fiber ribbon is printed with a unique ID for ease of identification.

Features And Benefits:
Fiber counts up to 1728 fibers - More fibers than any other outdoor cable design
Based on traditional stranded loose tube design - Ensures installer/technician familiarity with methods and procedures.
Rapid mass-fusion splicing - 12 fibers spliced simultaneously for easier, faster cable installation and restoration.
Completely gel-free up to 432 fibers - Up to 2 minutes cleaning time saved per-ribbon
