The 8FO (1X8) Indoor Loose tube Fiber Optic Cable OM4 G.651.1 LSZH Anti Rodent (Part number: 19603700BZ) from Dätwyler with 8FO and Anti Rodent construction . Indoor/Outdoor fiber optic cable is prepared for both environmental requirements, indoor and outdoor optical networks, which can be run in duct, direct buried or aerial in the outside plant. By installing this cable, there's no need of costly splice junctions when entering into buildings because of the adaptability of the cable.
The 8FO (1X8) Indoor Loose tube Fiber Optic Cable OM4 G.651.1 LSZH Anti Rodent from Datwyler is a indoor cable with 8 fibers within 1 loose tube. This distribution robust cable for optical networks can be installed in different environments and has a non-metallic fibre optic indoor cable with one central loose-tube. High crush resistance for high transmission reliability. Easy handling due to cable construction with dry interstices and gel-free loose tube. Non-metallic rodent protection. The two coloured ripcords are easy to identify and enable the safe opening of the cable sheath. Flame retardant halogen-free FR/LS0H sheath.
OM4 (Optical Multimode 4) is a type of multimode fiber defined by the G.651.1 standard. It has a core diameter of 50 microns and is designed for high-bandwidth applications over longer distances than OM3, supporting up to 10 Gbps over distances of up to 550 meters and 40 Gbps over distances of up to 150 meters. OM4 is commonly used for data center and enterprise networks and is optimized for use with VCSEL sources, offering lower attenuation and higher bandwidth than OM3.
While using a loose tube construction in cables, you can:
The loose tube construction solution can be chosen for the following applications:
Anti-Rodent is a type of fiber optic cable protection designed to prevent damage from rodents such as rats, mice, and squirrels. This protection is achieved by applying a special coating or tape to the cable, making it difficult for rodents to chew through the cable and cause damage. Anti-rodent protection is particularly important in outdoor and underground installations where rodents are common, and can help to prevent costly and time-consuming repairs.
LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) is a jacket material that is designed to limit the release of smoke and toxic fumes in the event of a fire. It is made without halogens, which makes it environmentally friendly and safe for human health. LSZH is highly resistant to moisture and chemicals, making it suitable for harsh environments. It is commonly used in public buildings, transportation systems, and other areas where safety is a primary concern. However, LSZH may be more expensive than other materials, and it may have a lower temperature rating, which may limit its use in certain applications.
