Overview
The TLC Distribution Fiber Optic Cable is designed for backbone and trunk applications, featuring a 24-fiber count utilizing high-performance Corning® SMF-28® Ultra Singlemode fiber. This cable is constructed with 900um tight buffered fibers, which significantly streamlines the termination process by eliminating the need for breakout kits in many configurations.
Suitable for Riser-rated indoor environments, this distribution cable offers a robust yellow jacket for easy identification. It is highly versatile, supporting direct termination of connectors onto the tight buffered fibers or enabling efficient fusion splicing of pigtails to the backbone, making it an essential component for high-density network installations.
