Overview
This TLC indoor/outdoor distribution fiber optic cable is engineered for versatility and reliability in diverse deployment environments. Featuring 24 singlemode 9/125µm fibers enhanced with Corning SMF-28 Ultra technology, this cable is designed to support high-performance network requirements.
The cable utilizes a gel-free, tight-buffered construction, allowing for direct termination of connectors onto 900µm fibers, which eliminates the need for complex breakout kits. Its rugged design includes water-blocking aramid yarn strength members and a durable, UV-resistant black riser-rated jacket, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
