Duct cable with higher level of rodent protection.
The 36FO (3X12) Duct Loose tube Fiber Optic Cable OS2 G.655 PE Anti Rodent Black (Part number: K1FPR0I036BCAA) from KDP with 36FO and Anti Rodent construction. Conduit cables are underground cables, that may be conducted by duct or buried directly into the ground. There are several types of protections for this cable such as anti-rodent or double protection. Conduit cables are built to withstand harsh environments and are typically routed by pull or blow.
The 36FO (3X12) Duct Loose tube Fiber Optic Cable OS2 G.655 PE Anti Rodent Black (Part number: K1FPR0I036BCAA) from KDP has higher level of rodent protection.
OS2 (Optical Singlemode 2) ITU G655 is a single-mode fibre with a chromatic dispersion coefficient (absolute value) that is greater than some non-zero value throughout the wavelengths larger than 1530 nm. This dispersion reduces the growth of non-linear effects that can be particularly deleterious in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems.
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.
PE (polyethylene) is a versatile jacket material that offers good protection against moisture, abrasion, and chemicals. It is highly flexible and has a low coefficient of friction, which makes it easy to install and handle. PE is also resistant to UV radiation and can withstand a wide range of temperatures, making it a popular choice for outdoor and industrial applications. However, it is less flame-resistant than other materials, which may limit its use in certain environments.
