Overview
The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is designed for versatile deployment across a variety of environments. This 4-fiber multimode 50/125um (OM3) cable features a robust, UV-resistant black jacket that supports both indoor and outdoor installations. Engineered with a distribution-style construction, it is suitable for use in riser-rated spaces, providing a durable solution for high-density networking needs.
The cable utilizes 900µm tight-buffered fibers, eliminating the need for complex breakout kits during connector termination, which significantly simplifies the installation process. Its gel-free design ensures clean, efficient handling. While ideal for many applications, this cable is intended for placement within conduits or innerducts in burial scenarios and is not recommended for lashing.
