Ribbon Interlocking Armored Cable Plenum 12 F Single-mode (OS2) CORNING-C 012EC8-14101-A3
Description: 

• Corning ribbon interlocking armored plenum cables are designed for use in plenum, riser, and general-purpose environments for intrabuilding backbone and horizontal installations. These cables are standard ribbon plenum cables placed inside spirally wrapped aluminum interlocking armor for ruggedness and superior crush resistance. This special construction facilitates routing inside buildings, through riser shafts and air-handling spaces, to telecommunication rooms, and to workstations. Ideal for heavy traffic or more challenging mechanical exposure conditions, this cable design consists of fibers organized into 12-fiber ribbons inside a central tube surrounded by dielectric strength members to provide tensile strength. The flexible interlocking armor offers up to seven times the crush protection of nonarmored cables, while a specially formulated flame-retardant outer jacket allows the design to meet the requirements of the NFPA 262 flame test. The 12-fiber ribbons have readily identifiable ribbon ID numbers and fiber colors with easy access to individual fibers.
