Armored Campus Backbone Cables
The 24FO (1X24) Duct Central Tube Fiber Optic Cable OS2 G.652.D Anti Rodent Black (Part number: ID1416_17-07-05) from Corning with 24FO 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 Corning® single-mode fiber SMF-28®ULTRA optical fiber is an ITU-T G652.D compliant optical fiber with Corning´s enhanced low loss and bend technologies. This full-spectrum fiber has bend performance that exceeds the ITU-T G.657.A1 standard and still splices the same as the installed base of standard SM fibers such as SMF28e+®
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:
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.
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a common jacket material that provides excellent protection against moisture, abrasion, and chemicals. It is flexible, durable, and cost-effective, making it a popular choice for a wide range of applications, from consumer electronics to industrial machinery. However, PVC can release toxic fumes when burned, and it is not as heat-resistant as other materials, which may limit its use in certain high-temperature environments.
