ALTOS® HD Gel-Free, All-Dielectric Cable with Binderless* FastAccess® Technology

Corning® ALTOS® HD cable with Binderless* FastAccess® technology is a high-density, all-dielectric gel-free cable designed for outdoor use for lashed aerial and duct installations.

The 24 fiber high-density buffer tube provides a 30 percent reduction in cable OD and a 2x increase in fiber density, which equals additional space for maximizing duct capacity. The buffer tubes and the fibers contained within are color-coded for quick and easy identification.

The innovative FastAccess technology feature combined with the gel-free binderless loose tube design simplifies cable jacket removal and tube access. The flexible buffer tubes are easy to route in closures, and the SZ-stranded, loose tube design isolates fibers from installation and environmental rigors while allowing easy midspan access.

The all-dielectric gel-free cable construction requires no bonding or grounding, and its medium-density polyethylene jacket that is rugged, durable, and easy to handle. The cable is fully waterblocked using craft-friendly, water-swellable materials, which means no cleanup is required.
