Overview
The TLC Distribution Fiber Optic Cable is designed for indoor networking environments requiring high-density fiber management. Featuring a 4-fiber configuration with Corning® SMF-28® Ultra Singlemode fiber, this cable is engineered for rapid termination in structured cabling systems.
The cable utilizes a distribution style architecture with 900μm tight-buffered fibers, which eliminates the need for complex breakout kits during installation. This construction allows for direct termination of connectors or simple fusion splicing of pigtails to backbone trunks. The plenum-rated yellow jacket ensures compliance with stringent fire safety building codes, making it suitable for air-handling spaces.
