Overview
The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is a robust, 12-fiber multimode solution designed for versatile deployment in both indoor and outdoor environments. Utilizing 50/125μm (OM3) ClearCurve fiber, this cable supports high-bandwidth data applications while maintaining high flexibility for easier installation.
The cable features a gel-free design, allowing for direct termination of connectors onto 900μm tight buffered fibers, which simplifies the installation process and reduces the need for additional breakout kits. Encased in a durable, UV-resistant black jacket with water-blocking aramid yarn, it provides essential protection for use in various rugged scenarios.
