Outdoor Enhanced Thermal Stability Tube Cables (Aerial and Duct)
Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s FutureFLEX® Outdoor Enhanced Thermal Stability Tube Cables (Aerial and Duct) are multi-tube cables designed for use in creating tube cable infrastructures in outdoor environments where non-conductive elements are desired or required.
The MSOS is designed for all normal OSP environments and in aerial or duct applications requiring enhanced thermal stability (i.e., on poles, refineries, industrial outdoor installations, or above frost lines/exposed to ambient air temperature changes).
