Corning MIC® riser cables are designed for use in riser and general purpose environments for intrabuilding backbone and horizontal installations. These multifiber cables use 900 ?m buffered fibers to enable easy, consistent stripping and facilitate termination. The fibers are surrounded by dielectric strength members and protected by a flame-retardant outer jacket.

The all-dielectric cable construction requires no grounding or bonding, making these cables ideal for routing inside buildings including riser shafts, to the telecommunications rooms and workstations. The MIC Riser Cables meet the application requirements of the National Electrical Code® (NEC®) Article 770 and the ICEA S-83-596 test criteria. They are OFNR and FT-4 listed for riser and general-purpose use.
