Overview
The TLC Distribution Cable is a 6-fiber multimode cable utilizing 62.5/125um Infinicor303 fiber. Designed for indoor applications, this cable features a plenum-rated jacket, making it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces where building codes require strict fire safety standards.
This distribution-style cable features 900um tight-buffered fibers, which simplify field termination by allowing for direct connectorization without the need for additional breakout kits. It is also compatible with direct fusion splicing to backbone or trunk cabling, providing a versatile solution for high-density local area network environments.
