FinMark LTxxx-SM-28 self-supporting optical cable
FinMark LTxxx-SM-28 self-supporting optical cable
- Cable type LT
- Design self-supporting
- Application Suspension
Description
Designed for hanging on supports of communication, electric contact networks, between buildings and other objects.
Cable has 5-8 optical modules, which are wound around a central strength member. Modules may contain up to 96 optical fibers. It is a slightly modified design of cable LTxxx-SM-18.
The space between optical modules is filled with water blocking hydrophobic compound. In a cable with a small number of fibers instead of the missing optical modules are used so-called «Filling» modules. The outer sheath is made of UV-stabilized high density polyethylene. Supporting strength element is made of galvanized steel rope, diameter 3.0 mm and provides good resistance to longitudinal tensile stresses.
Optical fiber that complies with ITU-T G.652.D.
