Overview
The TLC 24-Fiber High-Density Micro Distribution Cable is engineered for high-performance data center and enterprise networking environments where space is at a premium. Featuring a compact 3.8mm outer diameter, this cable allows for efficient routing in crowded conduits, cable trays, and rack systems, while maintaining the structural integrity required for critical network infrastructure.
Constructed with two color-bound bundles of 12 optical fibers, this cable includes robust aramid yarn for strength and is encased in a plenum-rated (OFNP) PVDF outer jacket. This design meets the stringent flame-retardant requirements of the National Electric Code (NEC) Article 770, ensuring safety in building airflow spaces.
