Armored OSP Standard Ribbon Cables
Armored OSP Standard Ribbon Cables are intended for duct, direct buried, and lashed aerial installations. These cables feature a dry water block yarn design that eliminates cable flooding gels, thereby eliminating the cleaning and blocking preparation steps associated with standard gel-filled cables. Armored OSP Standard Ribbon Cables are installer friendly, lighter in weight than conventional gel-filled cables, and allow for easier cable handling, easy mid-span entry, and superior fiber access ability. The steel armored sheath construction produces a rugged, rodent resistant cable and adds compressive strength required for direct buried applications.
