Description
xLitech Single Mode Anti-Rodent Non-Metallic Direct Buried Optical Fiber Cable is an outdoor cable for laying straight into the ground where rodent protection is needed and a metal-free cable is preferred. A non-metallic anti-rodent layer between a 1 mm inner sheath and a 2 mm outer sheath protects the gel-filled PBT loose tubes and central FRP strength member without metal armour. It is offered from 2 to 72 fibres on 4 km reels.
Key Features:
- Non-metallic anti-rodent design: Rodent protection without metal armour
- Double sheath: 1 mm inner sheath and 2 mm MDPE / HDPE† outer sheath
- 2 to 72 fibres: ITU-T G.652.D† single-mode fibre in gel-filled PBT loose tubes; choose the fibre count above
- Water blocking: Water swellable tape around the cable core
- 4 km reels: Bulk or custom lengths on request
Applications:
- Direct buried routes
- Areas with rodent risk
- Long-haul and access networks
