Product Information

Specification

Description:

• Corning ALTOS® cable with Binderless* FastAccess® technology is an all-dielectric gel-free cable designed for outdoor and limited indoor use for lashed aerial and duct installations. The innovative FastAccess technology feature combined with the gel-free binderless loose tube design simplifies removal of the cable jacket and accessing the buffer tubes. The loose tube design uses Corning's SMF-28® Ultra fiber to provide reliable transmission parameters for a variety of voice, data, video and imaging applications. The cable is fully waterblocked using craft-friendly, water-swellable materials, which means no cleanup 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 polyethylene jacket that is rugged, durable and easy to handle.

* Corning’s patented Binderless* FastAccess® Technology refers to the combination of a Corning FastAccess Technology jacket with an innovative technology used to bind cable construction through the manufacturing process, eliminating the use of binder yarns and waterblocking tapes.

Features And Benefits:

• Binderless* FastAccess® Technology
  - Corning's Binderless FastAccess Technology refers to the combination of a Corning FastAccess Technology jacket with an innovative technology used to bind cable construction through the manufacturing process, eliminating the use of binder yarns and waterblocking tapes and resulting in a 25 percent improvement in cable access time. These technologies also reduce the overall risk of inadvertent fiber damage by reducing the need for sharp cable access tools.

• Binderless stranded optical core
  - Elimination of overlapping yarn binders around stranded tubes to reduce end access time

• Fully waterblocked loose tube, gel-free design
  - Simple access and no clean up

• Polyethylene jacket
  - Rugged, durable and easy to strip (while providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion and other environmental factors)

• Available with G.652.D and/or G.657.A1 fiber
  - Ready for any application
