ALTOS Gel-Free Single-Armored Cable Lite Loose Tube Single-mode 288 F Single-Jacket CORNING 288EUC-T4101D20

Description:

Corning ALTOS® Lite gel-free, single-jacket, single-armored cables are designed for campus backbones in direct-buried installations. The loose tube design provides stable and highly reliable transmission parameters for a variety of voice, data, video, and imaging applications. These cables also provide high-fiber density within a given cable diameter while allowing flexibility to suit many system configurations. The single-armored construction provides additional crush and rodent protection with a high-strength ripcord under the armor for easy stripping. Gel-free means the cables are fully water-blocked using craft-friendly, water-swellable materials which make cable access simple and require no cleanup. The flexible, craft-friendly 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 mid-span access. These cables have a medium-density polyethylene jacket that is rugged, durable, and easy to strip.

Features and Benefits:

• Gel-free water-blocking technology - Craft-friendly cable preparation
• Polyethylene jacket - Rugged, durable, and easy to strip (while providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion, and other environmental factors)
• Corrugated steel tape armor - Provides rodent resistance for direct-buried applications
