Overview
The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable features a 12-fiber distribution construction designed for versatile deployment in both indoor and outdoor environments. Engineered with 50/125um OM3 ClearCurve multimode fiber, this cable supports high-bandwidth applications while maintaining the flexibility required for easy handling and installation.
This cable utilizes a gel-free design, which allows for direct termination of connectors onto 900µm tight-buffered fibers, eliminating the need for complex breakout kits and reducing labor time. It is protected by a durable, UV-resistant black jacket that meets riser rating requirements, ensuring reliability in rugged use applications.
