SEALPIC®-FSF-84 Cables are suited for aerial applications where a filled cable design is preferred. The core and support member (messenger) lay parallel to each other forming a cross-sectional “figure 8.” The support messenger is an integral part of the cable sheath, yet readily available for gripping, pulling and tensioning.

Features:
• Core wrap
• Filled core
• Fully flooded shield interfaces
• Fully flooded steelsupport member
• Black, polyethylene jacket

Benefits:
• Minimizes crosstalk
• Provides thermal protection
• Moisture resistant
• Inhibits corrosionand water migration
• Inhibits corrosion
• Provides a tough, protectivecovering designed to withstandexposure to direct sunlight,atmospheric temperaturechanges and stresses expectedin standard installations

Specifications:
Conductor:
Solid annealed copper

Insulation:
Dual insulation consisting of an inner layer of foamed, naturalpolyolefin over which is applied a solid (skin) layer ofpolyolefin colored in accordance with industry standards

Twisted Pairs:
Individual insulated conductors; twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths; specific color combinations provide pair identification

≤ 25-Pair Core:
Pairs are assembled into a cylindrical core

> 25-Pair Core:
Cables larger than 25-pair are assembled into units,which are then used to assemble the core; units areidentifiable using color-coded binders

Filling Compound:
80°C ETPR compound, completely filling the intersticesbetween the pairs and under the core wrap

Core Wrap:
Non-hygroscopic, dielectric tape

Shield:
Corrugated, copolymer coated, 8 mil aluminum tape appliedlongitudinally with an overlap; flooded shield interfaces

Support Member:
0.25 inch, 7-strand Extra High Strength (EHS) galvanizedsteel messenger serves as support member andintegral part of the sheath; messenger is flooded

Jacket:
Black, polyethylene

Jacket Marking:
Identifying information includes a telephone handset,cable code, pair count, AWG, date of manufactureand sequential length markings at 2 foot intervals

Standards Compliance:
• SEALPIC-FSF-84 cables meet the physical and electricalrequirements of RDUP specification 7 CFR 1755.890(PE-89), except that the figure 8 sheath shall meet therequirements of ANSI/ICEA S-85-625-2011 Option A
• RoHS-compliant

Applications:
• Aerial
