Superior Essex Cable Interlock Armored 2mm Microarray Breakout OFCP Cable

Product Details

The Interlock Armored Microarray Breakout cable from Superior Essex is designed for high performance with robust mechanical protection. The premises loose tube design consists of 12-fiber 2 mm microarray interconnect cable subunits, each of which contain twelve 250 micron fibers. The aramid yarns inside the subunit allow the subunit to be crimped directly onto an MTP®/MPO connector. The 2 mm subunits are stranded around a central strength element that is both flexible and robust enough to pass backbone installation requirements. The stranded subunits are held to the strength element core by binder yarns and/or tapes ensuring excellent temperature performance. A RoHS-compliant flexible jacket protects the core while providing fire protection. Finally, the cable is interlock armored with either aluminum (standard) or steel and jacketed.
