48 Fiber 62.5 Multimode OM1 ALTOS Loose Tube Gel-Free All-Dielectric Cable w FastAccess

At ProWireandCable.com, our considerable selection of durable fiber optic cables includes the Altos Loose Tube, Gel-Free, All-Dielectric Cable with FastAccess Technology, 48 Fiber, 62.5 Multimode (OM1) (048KU4-T4730D20)!

Description

Corning Cable Systems ALTOS Cable with FastAccess Technology is an all-dielectric gel-free cable designed for outdoor and limited indoor use for campus backbones in lashed aerial and duct installations.

The innovative FastAccess Technology feature combined with the all-dielectric gel-free loose tube design simplifies removal of the cable jacket reducing cable end access time by at least 50 percent. Equally important is the overall reduction in risk of inadvertent fiber damage and risk to installers from sharp cable access tools. The cable is fully waterblocked using craft-friendly, water-swellable materials, which means no clean up is required. The flexible buffer tubes are easy to route in closures, and the SZ-stranded, loose tube design isolates fibers from installation and environmental rigors while allowing easy midspan access. The all-dielectric gel-free cable construction requires no bonding or grounding, and these cables have a medium-density polyethylene jacket that is rugged, durable, and easy to handle.
