Waterblocking technology
OSP (outdoor) applications
Corrugated steel armoring
Rodent, mechanical protection and direct buried applications
UV- and microbe-resistant
Can be installed in ducts or conduits
Dry cable core by means of water swellable elements
Allows efficient and craft-friendly cable preparation in outdoor applications
Fibres/buffer tubes colour coded to Telcordia-Bellcore
Easy identification of the individual tubes and fibres
SZ-stranded, loose tube design
Isolates fibers from installation and environmental rigors and facilitates mid-span access
