Silicon Valley, CA, USA
Overview
This TLC 48-fiber distribution cable is designed for high-density indoor networking applications. Featuring Corning® InfiniCor® 300 62.5/125um OM1 multimode fiber, this cable is engineered for reliable performance in vertical riser environments. Its distribution-style construction incorporates 900um tight-buffered fibers, which are grouped into subunits of 12 for simplified identification and management.
By utilizing tight-buffered fibers, this cable eliminates the need for breakout kits during termination, allowing for direct connector termination or fusion splicing to backbone cabling. The riser-rated jacket provides the necessary flame retardance for compliant installation within building shafts and other internal cable pathways.
