Overview
The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is a high-performance distribution cable designed for versatile installation environments. Featuring 12-fiber singlmode 9/125um construction, this cable incorporates industry-standard Corning SMF-28 Ultra Fiber for optimal signal transmission. It is engineered with a plenum-rated, UV-resistant black jacket, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor deployments where fire safety and environmental protection are required.
This cable utilizes a gel-free design, which simplifies the termination process by allowing connectors to be applied directly to the 900um tight-buffered fibers. This configuration eliminates the need for complex break-out kits, reducing overall installation time and material costs. The inclusion of water-blocking aramid yarn provides essential strength and protection against moisture ingress.
