The 288FO (24x12) Duct Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.652.D Dielectric Unarmoured (Part number: EE2783F00028800NO) from Cablescom with 288FO and Dielectric Unarmoured 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 288FO (24x12) Duct Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.652.D Dielectric Armoured from Cablescom is a Duct cable with 288 fibers within 24 loose tubes. This distribution cable for optical networks has a loose tube structure with 2.3 mm gel filled PBT loose tubes stranded in SZ and a FvP type polyethylene outer sheath and fiber glass yarns as reinforcements. It has a fibreglass-reinforced central element and sweallable yarns and one tape over each layer to avoid water penetration and make the cable waterproof. The optical fibers comply with ITU-T recommendations G.652.D (EN 60793-2 - Class B 50 B 1.3.
For outdoor use; Installation in ducts by pulling or blowing with maximum tensile strengths of 2 x linear weight. For use in medium or long-distance telecommunications networks.
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 specification of the OS2 fiber is generally considered as the SMF standard for the single-mode fiber. For the OS2 G.652 fiber there are 4 subcategories: G.652.A, G.652.B, G.652.C, G.652.D.
The OS2 G.652.D single-mode fibers are the most used type of fiber for networking and communications applications. The OS2 G.652.D fiber type provides a zero dispersion at 1310nm wavelength therefor it is optimized for operation in the 1310nm Wavelength. The regular performance remains on the 1550nm wavelength.
Benefits of using the OS2 G.652.D fibers:
While using a loose tube construction in cables, you can:
The loose tube construction solution can be chosen for the following applications:
Dielectric unarmoured is a type of fiber optic cable protection that provides electrical isolation without the added mechanical protection of an armor layer. This type of protection is achieved by using dielectric materials such as aramid yarns or glass fibers to provide strength to the cable. Dielectric unarmoured FOC is typically used in indoor installations, where the cable is not exposed to the same level of mechanical stress and environmental factors as outdoor installations. It is also used in applications where weight and flexibility are a concern, such as in aerospace or automotive industries.
