SUPERIOR ESSEX® Dri-Lite® 120123D01 12D Single Jacket Single Armor Single Mode Loose Tube Cable, 12 Fiber, Stranded Conductor

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 and water blocking elements are placed inside gel-free buffer tubes. 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.
