Overview
The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is a robust, high-performance distribution cable designed for versatile indoor and outdoor deployments. Featuring 24 singlemode fibers, this cable utilizes Corning® SMF-28® Ultra fiber, ensuring superior optical performance and long-term signal integrity for demanding network applications.
Constructed with 900μm tight-buffered fibers and water-blocking aramid yarn strength members, the cable offers excellent mechanical protection and reliability. Its plenum-rated, UV-resistant black jacket makes it suitable for use in diverse environments, including plenum spaces and outdoor conduits. This gel-free design allows for direct termination of connectors onto the tight-buffered fibers, streamlining installation and reducing overall deployment costs.
