Multi Loose Tube Cable

The cable consists of 5 to 36 fi bers containing tubes or fi llers stranded in up to 3 layers around a central.
Multi loose tube cable. But there are two basic styles of fiber optic cable construction. Each however is designed for very different environments. The multi loose tube cable construction consists of up to 144 250µm optical fibers in 12 fiber gel filled loose tubes with fillers where appropriate sz stranded around a fiber reinforced plastic frp central strength member with waterswellable threads and waterswellable tape. Most common and widely used design.
All our outdoor cables are strong robust and agile to deal with harsh environments direct burial and aerial applications. Fiber loose tube cable belden s loose tube cables are ideal for both outdoor indoor outdoor applications including use in conduit direct burial lashed aerial trunking. Loose tube and tight buffered. Outdoor fiber optic cable.
Fiber optic cables are constructed in two ways. Multi loose tube micro cable consists of up to 24 fibres within a gel filled central tube with water blocking glass yarns. Their designs utilize 250µm fibers in both central multi loose tube constructions ranging in fiber counts from 2 to 288. Strain free fibers in a stranded multi loose tube design.
Each tube contains 4 12 fi bers. Being a micro cable makes this cable suitable for blowing into microducts. From the picture below we can see that loose tube fiber holds more than one optical fiber each individually. Multi loose tube cable.
Fiber count up to 144. Sz stranding design allows for easy mid span access and isolate fibers from installation and environmental rigors. Fiber optic cable is available in many physical variations such as single and multiple conductor constructions aerial and direct burial styles plenum and riser cables etc. Altos loose tube gel free all dielectric cable with fastaccess tm technology 4 fiber 62 5 µm multimode om1.

Multi loose tube fibre optic cables are ideal for outdoor communications long distance and local area network lan connections. Both contain a type of strengthening member such as aramid yarn stainless steel wire strands or gel filled sleeves. Add to cart add to list. Since the tube does not have direct contact with the fiber any cable material expansion or contraction will not cause stress on the fiber.
