Indoor/Outdoor Premises Distribution w/Armor-Tek Riser Rated

Send link to this page print Your Nexans contact on this page
Indoor/Outdoor Premises Distribution w/Armor-Tek Riser Rated Berk-Tek's Riser rated Indoor/Outdoor Premises Distribution cables are designed specifically for LAN/WAN campus and building backbone cabling infrastructure. Armor-Tek Interlocking Armor is wound around the cable core. Suitable for Indoor/Outdoor installations, below the frost line.
Standards
International  EN 50173; ISO/IEC 11801
National  ANSI/ICEA S-83-596; ANSI/TIA-568-C.3; Telcordia GR-409
Description

Berk-Tek's tight buffered indoor/outdoor riser interlock armored cables are designed for installation in riser  and horizontal environments and interbuilding backbone structures.

This design incorporates tight buffered optical fibers within a dry water blocked core cable.  Interlock armor and an outer jacket are added over the cable core.  Suitable for operation across wide temperature variations typically addressed by outside plant cables.  No Buffer Tube Fanout kits are required.  Direct termination is enabled.

 

Construction

Each cable utilizes our DryGel water blocking system in the core cable.  Cable design can accommodate from 6-144 tight buffered (900 µm) fibers.  A glass reinforced (GRP) anti-buckling member is centrally located within cables having fiber counts from 24-144.

OFCR Rated.  Available with aluminum or steel interlock armor.

 

Outdoor Considerations

For use in conduit, below the frost line.

Loose Tube cables are recommended if interbuilding conduit systems lie above the frost line and are likely to fill with water.

  •  Tight Buffer fiber cables are not suitible for aerial-lashed installations.

 

Applications

Berk-Tek's tight buffered Interlocking Armor cable is intended for all high speed data applications including:

  • 10BASE-FL
  • 100BASE-SX/100BASE-FX
  • ATM 155/ATM 622
  • 1000BASE-SX/1000BASE-LX
  • Fibre Channel 1.062/2.125
  • 10GBASE-SR/SW
  • 10GBASE-LX4
  • 40/100 GbE

 

Features

  • Flexible 900 µm tight buffered construction
  • High tensile strength cost-saving design, easy to install and terminate
  • Six to 144 count fiber construction riser rated indoor/outdoor designs ideal for backbone installations
  • Single-mode, multimode, and hybrid designs available
  • Also available in low smoke zero halogen design

 

Benefits

  • Cost-saving design, easy to install and terminate
  • Provides for greater pulling distances thus reducing installation time
  • Assurance that cables will meet required specifications for communication networking applications
  • Broad design selection allows for mix and match of fiber components to specific networking applications
  • One cable design meeting all structured cabling network communications applications
