The 48FO (6x8) Indoor/ Outdoor Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.652.D LSZH Dielectric Unarmoured (Part number: EE6102F0000480SNO) from Cablescom with 48FO and Dielectric Unarmoured construction . Indoor/Outdoor fiber optic cable is prepared for both environmental requirements, indoor and outdoor optical networks, which can be run in duct, direct buried or aerial in the outside plant. By installing this cable, there's no need of costly splice junctions when entering into buildings because of the adaptability of the cable.
The 48FO (6x8) Indoor/ Outdoor Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.652.D LSZH Dielectric Unarmoured from Cablescom is a Indoor/outdoor cable with 48 fibers within 6 loose tubes. This distribution cable for optical networks has a double LSZH sheath, aramid yarns as traction resistant and a dielectric fibreglass-reinforced central element, allowing it to be totally dielectric and rodent retardant. Swellable yarns and tapes to avoid water penetration inside the cable. The optical fibers comply with ITU-T recommendations G.652D.
For indoor or outdoor use; Installation in tunnels or in cable galleries or inside buildings or canalizations.
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.
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.
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.
