The 48FO (4x12) Duct Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.652.D FR-LSZH Orange (Part number: K1FLE02048E9AA) from KDP with 48FO. 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 48FO (4x12) Duct Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.652.D FR-LSZH Orange from KDP is a Duct cable with 48 fibers within 4 loose tubes. This distribution cable for optical networks has a loose tube structure, a FR-LSZH UV stable polyethylene sheath with one ripcord underneath, a water blocking E-glass yarn and aramid yarn to prevent the progression of water inside the cable and a 1,0 mm FRP dielectric central strength member for mechanical reinforcement. The optical fibers comply with ITU-T recommendations G.652.D.
For indoor or outdoor use; FTTx

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:
HFFR (halogen-free, flame-retardant) is a jacket material that offers excellent fire protection and reduced smoke emission in the event of a fire. It is designed to be environmentally friendly and safe for human health, as it does not contain halogens or heavy metals. HFFR is highly resistant to moisture and chemicals, making it suitable for harsh and demanding environments. However, it may be more expensive than other materials, and it may have a lower temperature rating, which may limit its use in certain applications.
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.
