DISTRIBUTION TIGHT BUFFER DOUBLE SHEATH ARMOURED FIBRE OPTIC CABLE

This cable is engineered for high-performance outdoor distribution and is built to withstand tough environmental conditions. Its 900 m m tight buffer construction simplifies fibre termination, allowing for quick and cost-effective installation without the need for breakout kits. The dual-sheath design ensures maximum durability: the inner LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) layer provides flame resistance, while the outer HDPE jacket delivers excellent protection against mechanical impact, UV radiation, and moisture. With outstanding flexibility and moisture resistance, this cable is ideal for routing through tight spaces and multiple bends. Its rugged design ensures secure, long-lasting connectivity, making it a reliable solution for a variety of external fiber optic applications.
