Product Details

Dri-Lite® Ribbon Single Armor Cable is a totally gel-free cable designed for Outside Plant (OSP) application, specifically direct buried, lashed aerial and underground duct applications. Our industry leading optical ribbons are manufactured with high dimensional precision and low planarity, which equates to low losses during mass fusion splicing. The cable features optical ribbons inside a gel-free tube which contains dry water-blocking elements. The core tube contains up to eighteen 12-fiber or 24-fiber ribbons. Each ribbon unit is discretely identified and captured in an easy peel matrix for ease of ribbon breakout and management. The core tube is wrapped with a water-blocking tape. A corrugated steel armor and longitudinal strength elements are applied over the core tube and encased within a black jacket. Rip cords are included under the armor for easy access to the core tube.
