Overview
The TLC distribution cable is a robust multimode fiber optic solution featuring 4 fibers with a 62.5/125um core/cladding diameter. Designed for efficient indoor routing, this cable incorporates Infinicor300 fiber, optimized for high-bandwidth performance in local area network (LAN) backbones and data center environments.
This distribution cable utilizes 900um tight buffered fibers, which simplifies field termination by allowing direct connector installation without the need for additional breakout kits. Its riser-rated jacket ensures compliance with standard fire safety requirements for vertical installations between floors. The cable is engineered to provide a compact, reliable path for high-speed data transmission in structured cabling systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install connectors directly onto this cable?
Yes, the 900um tight buffered fiber design is specifically engineered for direct connector termination.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This specific cable is riser-rated for indoor use. It is not intended for outdoor or outside plant applications.
What is the primary benefit of the distribution cable design?
The main benefit is ease of termination, as the tight-buffered fibers do not require extra breakout or fan-out kits.
Is this compatible with fusion splicing?
Yes, the fibers can be easily fusion spliced to backbone or trunk cables.
What does the 62.5/125um specification mean?
This refers to the diameter of the fiber core (62.5 microns) and the cladding (125 microns), which is standard for OM1 multimode fiber.
