Fiber Optic Cables: MIC Tight-Buffered, Interlocking Armored Cable, Plenum, 6 Fiber, Single-Mode (OS2) (006E88-31131-A3)

At ProWireandCable.com, our substantial array of long-lasting fiber optic cables includes the MIC Tight-Buffered, Interlocking Armored Cable, Plenum, 6 Fiber, Single-Mode (OS2) (006E88-31131-A3)!

Description

Corning Cable Systems MIC Interlocking Armored Plenum Cables are designed for use in plenum, riser and general purpose environments for intrabuilding backbone and horizontal installations. These multifiber cables use individually jacketed TBII Buffered Fibers enabling easy, consistent stripping and facilitating termination. The fibers are grouped into jacketed subunits and surrounded by a dielectric central member.

The core is protected by a flexible, spirally wrapped, aluminum interlocking armor that offers easy, one-step installation and over seven times the crush protection of unarmored cables. With a flame-retardant outer jacket, this cable is particularly useful for heavy traffic or more challenging mechanical exposure conditions and applications requiring extra rugged cables.

This cable is available in 12 different jacket colors - blue, orange, green, brown, slate, white, red, black, yellow, purple, rose and aqua. The colored jacket allows for easy visual identification of the cables.
