About Single Mode Armored Fiber Cable

Single Mode Armored Fiber Cable is light-weight, highly-flexible and easy to handle cable. This is available with aluminum interlock armor for ensuring to use no inner duct or conduit. It is designed for easy termination and installation. It is designed using bend-insensitive optical fibers to ensure to support different needs from 10 gigabit to 40 gigabit Ethernet. It is provided with solid jacket to resist the Single Mode Armored Fiber Cable from any kind of abrasion and wear.

Superior Durability for Harsh Environments

This armored fiber cable features a lightweight corrugated steel tape, protecting against impacts, rodents, and harsh installation environments. With a minimum bending radius of 10x the cable diameter (installation) and high crush resistance (>1500 N/100mm), it maintains signal integrity in demanding conditions. The water-blocking yarn and gel prevent moisture ingress, making this cable ideal for underground and direct burial deployments.

Low Attenuation and Reliable Transmission

Compatible with ITU-T G.652D and G.657A1/A2 standards, the single mode fiber ensures high-fidelity long-haul transmission. Attenuation is kept to a minimum0.36 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.22 dB/km at 1550 nmenabling efficient data transfer for backbone, FTTx, and data center applications. Fusion and mechanical splicing are supported for seamless network integration.

Safe and Sustainable Installation

The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) and polyethylene sheath minimize toxic emissions in fire incidents, ensuring compliance with modern safety standards. UV-resistant for outdoor projects, this cable is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, including tray, duct, aerial, and direct burial. With RoHS compliance and customizable sizing (1 to 24 fibers), it adapts to diverse network needs.

FAQs of Single Mode Armored Fiber Cable:

Q: How is the Single Mode Armored Fiber Cable installed in various environments?

A: This fiber cable is versatile, supporting direct burial, aerial suspension, conduit/tray routing, and duct installations. Its armored and UV-resistant construction enables reliable performance in both outdoor and indoor settings. Supplied on wooden drums, the cable can be efficiently deployed over long distances using standard installation machinery.

Q: What benefits does the LSZH jacket offer during deployment and in emergencies?

A: The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer jacket reduces smoke and eliminates halogen emissions during exposure to fire, enhancing safety for installation crews and environments such as data centers and public facilities. This makes it compliant with international fire regulations and suitable for use in enclosed or populated areas.

Q: When should customers select G.657A1/A2 compatible fiber rather than G.652D only?

A: G.657A1/A2 fibers are preferred in networks with tight routing spaces or frequent bends because they offer improved bending tolerance without significant signal loss. G.652D, while excellent for long straight runs, may not perform as well in bend-rich installations such as FTTH (Fiber to the Home) or complex data centers.

Q: Where can this armored fiber cable provide the most value?

A: This cable is particularly well-suited for backbone cabling, direct burial installations, outdoor conduit, tray or duct environments, and locations prone to rodent activity or mechanical risks. Its robust protection and moisture resistance make it ideal for harsh terrains, underground networks, and high-traffic outdoor runs.

Q: What process should be followed for splicing and termination?

A: The cable is compatible with conventional fusion and mechanical splicing. Begin by stripping the LSZH and armor layers, prepare the buffer or loose tubes, and then clean and cleave fibers before alignment in the splicer or connector. Both mechanical and fusion splices can be used for seamless integration into new or existing networks.

Q: How does the cable ensure protection against rodents and moisture intrusion?

A: The cables lightweight corrugated steel armor acts as a physical barrier against rodents and mechanical hazards, while the water-blocking yarn and gel within the structure prevent moisture penetration. This ensures long-term reliability, particularly in direct burial, underground, or outdoor installations.

Q: What fiber counts and lengths are available for customization?

A: This product is available with 1 to 24 optical fibers and can be supplied in reels ranging typically from 1 km to 10 km in length. Customizations to fiber count, sheath thickness, and overall dimension are possible to align with specific project requirements.
