Overview
The TLC Distribution Cable is a high-performance fiber optic solution designed for indoor environments requiring reliable data transmission. Featuring 6 fibers of 50/125um OM3 multimode glass, this cable is engineered with ClearCurve technology to provide enhanced bend insensitivity, making it ideal for tight routing in data centers and enterprise networks.
This cable features 900um tight-buffered fibers, which facilitate faster and more efficient field terminations. Because the individual fibers are protected, they can be terminated directly with connectors or fusion-spliced to backbone cabling without the need for additional breakout kits, simplifying installation and reducing labor time. The plenum-rated jacket allows for safe installation in air-handling spaces.
