Standard Ribbon Interlocking Armored Indoor Plenum Central Tube Cables

Standard Ribbon Interlocking Armored Indoor Plenum Central Tube Cables

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s Standard Ribbon Interlocking Armored Indoor Plenum Central Tube Cables, featuring a fiber count of up to 432 fibers, are ideal for high-density networks and save valuable duct space in the building. The cable features 250 μm color-coded optical fibers for easy fiber identification and Sumitomo Electric’s patented Easy Split and Peel technology for easy fiber access and unprecedented ease of handling and splicing. The 12-ribbon groupings enable easy connectorization with both MPO and industry-standard connectors. The cables also feature interlocking armor, providing protection against crushing forces. Flexible dielectric strength members within the cable core provide mechanical durability within a flame-retardant jacket, and the non-preferential bend axis allows for easy installation in space-constrained areas. These plenum-rated cables meet or exceed OFCP and CSA FT-6 approvals and listings.
