Indoor Armored Tactical Fiber Optic Cable: Rugged Protection for Harsh Environments
This indoor armored tactical fiber optic cable is designed for demanding field operations and complex environments. Its unique construction, featuring both aramid yarn and a spiral steel tube, provides exceptional protection against physical damage, including rodent attacks. This cable is ideal for applications requiring ruggedness and reliability, offering a secure solution for data transmission in challenging conditions. Pre-terminated cable options are available for faster deployment.
Description
This indoor armored tactical fiber cable incorporates both aramid yarn and a spiral steel tube as strength members, making it highly resistant to rodent damage. Multiple tight buffered fibers are well-protected within the cable’s outer sheath, reinforced by the aramid yarn and spiral steel tube. The stainless steel spiral steel tube provides resistance to compression, tension, and rodent bites. This cable is suitable for various harsh and complex wiring environments.
Application
This cable is suitable for outdoor aerial installation and FTTH deployments.
Features
- Tight buffered optical fiber for easy stripping and operation
- Good flame retardant performance of the tight buffered fiber
- Aramid yarn strength member for excellent tensile characteristics
- Stainless steel tube for extra tensile and pressure strength
- Optional stainless steel woven mesh for further tension and anti-rodent protection
- Small circular cable for convenient laying
- Flexible with a good bending radius during operation
