EnduraLite® Dry Block, Sunlight Resistant Indoor/Outdoor Loose Tube riser and plenum rated Interlock Armored cable lines offer the system designer the smallest form factor in a premises indoor/outdoor optical fiber cable. The cables can be installed in open spaces, trays, conduits, inner-ducts, trenches, steam tunnels and building riser or plenum locations. The cables incorporate the latest in dry water-blocking technology which eliminates the need to clean off the traditional gel-based water-blocking compounds. In the single unit design, a 3 mm central tube contains 2 to 12, 250 μm fibers and water-blocking aramid yarns. In the multi-unit design, the waterblocked 3 mm subunits are stranded around a central strength element. The tube or core is surrounded by additional water-blocking glass strength elements and an outer jacket, comprised of a rugged UL Listed, sunlight resistant, black polymer that allows for the cable to be exposed to long-term direct sunlight without the concern of material degradation. The cable is then protected by an interlock armor and a sunlight resistant black over jacket. All fiber types are available, including 50/125 μm, 62.5/125 μm and single mode.

Features

Benefits
• Future-proof fiber performance for current and future multigigabit applications
• Cable integrity maintained even if damage occurs to protective layers
• Attaches directly to MTP® or MPO mechanical connectors
• Eliminates the need to purchase separate cables for OSP and indoor/riser or plenum applications
• No additional grounding materials need to be purchased
• Saves time in cable preparation
• Long periods of direct sunlight exposure will not damage cable
• Adjustable tension control on reel prevents over spin and entangling of cable
• Quickly identifies the fiber type without searching for the jacket print
