Product Details
Belden's loose tube cables are ideal for both outdoor & indoor/outdoor applications, including use in conduit, direct burial, lashed aerial, trunking. Their designs utilize 250µm fibers in both central & multi loose tube constructions ranging in fiber counts from 2 to 288. Standard offerings include plenum, riser, and outside plant ratings with the option of aluminium interlocked armor or steel corrugated armor.
Features & Benefits:
• 250µm Fibers: Facilitate mass fusion splicing
• Single & Multi-Unit Designs: Provide space savings & easier installations
• All-Dielectric Designs: Eliminate the need for grounding
• Offered in Interlocking & Steel Corrugated Armor: Removes the need for conduit & increases crush resistance
