Product Description

The 96FO (8X12) Air Blown Microduct Loose tube Fiber Optic Cable OS2 G.652.D Anti Rodent Black (Part number: K1-2994) from OFS with 96FO and Anti Rodent construction . Air blown microduct fiber cable is optimised for injection into microducts and is used in optical networks, more specifically for use in Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and Fiber-to-the-Desk (FTTD) networks. This technique that is lower at cost, quicker and more environmentally friendly than traditional deployment, allowing a simpler instalation with less resources.

Loose Tube Fibre Optic Outdoor Cable with 8 buffer tubes and 12 AllWave fibers per tube. Double layer of glass elements for protection against rodents. Small tubes for a reduced outer diameter. Dry Core Design - Cable Core water blocked by means of dry 'water swellable' technology - for quicker, cleaner cable preparation for jointing

To implement or upgrade a modern metropolitan optical network, especially through urban areas, service providers can face challenges such as space limitations to excavation disruption to upgradability. To help make these intricate networks simpler and less costly, OFS developed the MiDia Microcable product line. An ideal solution for congested metro networks, the MiDia Microcables can help dramatically lower the cost of fiber optic deployment while increasing and enhancing capacity and fiber density in limited spaces. Whether your application involves overriding cables installed in existing ducts, deployment into unused inner ducts or greenfield “grow-as-you go” deployments, the MiDia Microcables are an excellent solution. By reducing or eliminating the need for expensive and disruptive excavation along with procuring costly rights-of-way, the MiDia Microcables offer a more cost-effective solution that requires fewer deployment resources. With the ability to deploy fiber only as needed, these microcables can help to defer initial investment costs while also allowing the flexibility to add newer fiber types or technologies as they become available.

Fiber Type (ITU) - OS2 G.652.D

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:

  • Backward compatibility with earlier versions;
  • Lower system cost;
  • Offers zero water peak and seamless splicing;
  • Lower splicing losses;
  • Supports longer cable runs.

FOC Construction - Loose tube

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

  • Pull and stretch without causing fractures from bending or tension;
  • Have full resistant protection of the fiber core, cladding and coating (mechanical protection and UV protection);
  • Reach optimized performances at extreme temperatures;
  • Avoid the risk of environmental damage (including water damage).

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

  • Direct buried;
  • Aerial;
  • Duct;
  • Rodent resistant;
  • Indoor and outdoor;
  • Water-blocking;
  • Temperature endurance.

FOC Protection - Anti Rodent

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.

Jacket Material - PE

PE (polyethylene) is a versatile jacket material that offers good protection against moisture, abrasion, and chemicals. It is highly flexible and has a low coefficient of friction, which makes it easy to install and handle. PE is also resistant to UV radiation and can withstand a wide range of temperatures, making it a popular choice for outdoor and industrial applications. However, it is less flame-resistant than other materials, which may limit its use in certain environments.
