Overview
The Mini Armored 12-fiber cable is designed for environments requiring robust mechanical protection while maintaining a compact cable diameter of 7.5mm. This singlemode cable utilizes G.657.A2 fiber, which provides enhanced bend insensitivity, making it ideal for high-density routing and installations with tight bends.
Featuring a durable armored construction, this cable protects the internal fibers from crushing forces and physical damage. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket ensures compliance with safety standards for indoor applications, minimizing toxic emissions in the event of combustion.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the G.657.A2 rating mean for this cable?
It indicates the fiber is bend-insensitive, allowing it to maintain lower optical signal loss when subjected to tighter bend radii compared to standard G.652.D fiber.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
The cable is designed with a protective armor and LSZH jacket, making it suitable for both indoor and certain indoor/outdoor environments; please consult local building codes regarding outdoor placement.
What is the diameter of the cable?
The outer diameter is 7.5mm.
Does this cable require special stripping tools?
Because of the armored construction, specialized armored cable slitters are recommended for safe jacket removal.
Can this be used for high-density environments?
Yes, the 12-fiber count combined with the compact 7.5mm diameter makes it well-suited for high-density rack and patch panel environments.
