1D1443101 Superior Essex Loose Tube Double Jacket Double Armor

Loose tube cables are the product of choice as the backbone in Outside Plant (OSP) environments. The rugged loose tube design offers reliable transmission performance over a broad temperature range. Optical fibers are placed inside filled buffer tubes containing PFM gel. The core is constructed by stranding the buffer tubes around a central member using a reverse oscillating lay (ROL). The core is wrapped with flexible strength members and covered with a water-blocking tape. A corrugated steel armor is applied and encased with a black inner jacket. More water-blocking yarns, a corrugated steel armor and a black outer jacket complete the cable construction. Rip cords are included under each armor for ease of entry.
