Overview
The TLC 72-fiber multimode micro distribution fiber optic cable is designed for high-density indoor environments where space optimization is critical. Utilizing OM1 62.5um fiber, this cable is engineered for use in premise networks and data centers. The compact design makes it an efficient choice for installations where conduit or tray space is limited.
This cable features a plenum-rated jacket, ensuring compliance with strict fire safety codes for air-handling spaces. For deployments requiring greater than 12 fibers, the construction utilizes 12-fiber subunits to facilitate organized cable management and easier termination during installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary benefit of micro distribution cable?
It provides a significantly smaller cable diameter than standard distribution cables, which is ideal for tight spaces or crowded conduit systems.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
No, this cable is designed for indoor applications. Refer to outdoor-rated cables for exterior installations.
How are the 72 fibers organized?
This cable utilizes 12-fiber subunits, ensuring the fibers are grouped for easier identification and cable management.
Can I use this cable in a riser space?
While this is a plenum-rated cable, it can typically be used in riser environments as plenum rating exceeds the requirements for riser-only applications.
Does this cable include armor?
The standard version listed is non-armored; however, versions with aluminum interlocking armor are available for environments requiring additional mechanical protection.
