Overview
The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is a 2-fiber, 50/125um OM3 Multimode cable designed for versatile deployment in both indoor and outdoor environments. Engineered with a distribution-style construction, this cable is flexible, easy to handle, and simple to install in a variety of network configurations.
This cable features a riser-rated, UV-resistant black jacket that offers protection against environmental elements. The gel-free design allows for direct termination of connectors onto the 900µm tight-buffered fibers, eliminating the need for breakout kits and reducing overall installation time and cost. It is intended for protected applications and should be placed within a conduit or innerduct when used in burial environments.
