Standard Ribbon Interlocking Armored Indoor/Outdoor Riser Central Tube Cables

Standard Ribbon Interlocking Armored Indoor/Outdoor Riser Central Tube Cables

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s Standard Ribbon Interlocking Armored Indoor/Outdoor Riser Central Tube Cables feature 250 mm color-coded optical fibers for easy fiber identification and Sumitomo’s exclusive patented easy split and peel technology for easy fiber access and unprecedented ease of handling and splicing. The 12-fiber ribbons enable connectorization with both MPO and all industry-standard connectors. The non-preferential bend axis allows for easy installation in space-constrained areas. The cable also features interlocking armor, adding protecting against crushing forces. The cables also eliminate the need for installers to switch from an outside plant to a premise cable when transitioning from the outside plant to the inside plant. The cables meet OFCR and CSA FT4 specifications and are available in all fiber types.
