Product Description

The 16FO (2x8) Riser Flex Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.657.A1 LSZH-FR (Part number: 60031641) from Prysmian with 16FO. Riser fiber optic cable is used in indoor and outdoor optical networks, more specifically in LAN backbone, access and riser zone. Riser cables are being used more and more in big projects outdoor that's why this type of cable benefits from a special jacket for different necessities.

The 16FO (2x8) Riser Flex Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.657.A1 LSZH-FR from Prysmian is a Riser cable with 16 fibers within 2 flex tubes. This distribution cable for optical networks has a micromodule structure (flex tube construction) with a thin wall tubing (FlexTube®), filled with a suitable compound, housing the optical fibres and a LSZH-FR polyethylene outer sheath. There are glass fibre reinforced plastic material, embedded in the outer sheath to improve mechanical characteristics. The fully dry Flextube® design provides easier storage & faster installation and finger access to the fibres (no specific tools to open the Flextube®). The optical fibers comply with ITU-T recomendations G.657A1.

Applications

Fiber Type (ITU) - OS2 G.657.A1

Each type of single-mode fiber has its own area of application, and the evolution of these optical fiber specifications reflects the evolution of transmission system technology from the earliest installation of single-mode optical fiber to the present day. Choose the right fiber is very important for each project/installation. The OS2 G.657 standard single-mode fibers were developed to allow a better bending radius regarding the G.652 standard. For the OS2 G.657 fiber there are 4 subcategories: G.657.A1, G.657.A2, G.657.B2, G.657.B3. The G.657.A1 fiber type is characterized by 10 mm minimum bending radius. These specifications of the G.657 fibers allow to have a better cost-efficiency due to compact cable designs and reduced space requirements.

FOC Construction - Flex tube

While using a flex tube construction in cables, you can:

  • Reduced installation time;
  • Easier handling, particularly in fiber distribution and termination units;
  • Fast access to fibers; easy to remove the module material with no tools required;
  • Small quantity of grease, minimizing clean-up time;
  • Avoid the risk of tube kinking (potentially causing attenuation increments or fiber breakage);
  • Simple mid-span breakout enabling single module extraction to aid distribution.

The cable flex tube construction solution can be chosen for the following applications:

  • Direct buried;
  • Rodent resistant;
  • Gunshot resistant;
  • Facade;
  • Indoor and outdoor;
  • Hybrid;
  • Underwater;
  • Tunnel.

Jacket Material - LSZH

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.

Fiber Mode - Single Mode (SM)

Single mode fiber uses a LASER light source, is a type of optical fiber with a small core diameter that allows only one mode of light to propagate. It is used in telecommunications and data transmission systems to transmit signals over long distances with low attenuation and high bandwidth. Single mode fiber is ideal for high-speed and long-distance applications, such as internet backbone networks, cable television networks, and fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) services. Its narrow core reduces the dispersion of light, allowing signals to travel further and faster than with multimode fiber.
