Freeform Ribbon™ Outdoor/Indoor OFNR LSZH Monotube Cables
Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s (SEL) Freeform Ribbon™ Outdoor/Indoor OFNR Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) Monotube Cables are intended for duct and direct buried installation and features the patented 12-fiber pliable Freeform Ribbon™ constructed of 200μm color-coded optical fibers.
Freeform Ribbon™ enables high fiber density within a small cable diameter which in turn helps with limited duct space. The 12-fiber ribbons may be spliced to a conventional ribbon, pliable ribbon, or non-ribbonized (single) fibers, as well as connectorization with both MPO and all industry standard connectors. The non-preferential bend axis allows for easy installation in space-constrained areas.
