TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable with Aluminum Interlocking Armor, 12 Fiber, Multimode, 62.5/125um, OM1, Plenum, Black (per meter)

Overview

The TLC Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable is a robust, distribution-style cable designed to bridge the gap between indoor and outdoor network environments. Featuring 12 multimode 62.5/125um OM1 fibers, this cable is constructed with aluminum interlocking armor to provide superior physical protection against crush and impact in rugged use applications.

Designed for installation efficiency, this cable utilizes water-blocking aramid yarn strength members and a gel-free design. This allows for direct termination of connectors onto the 900μm tight-buffered fibers, eliminating the need for complex breakout kits. While suitable for indoor and outdoor environments, this cable must be housed in conduit or innerduct when used in burial applications and is not rated for lashing.
