New
Send link to this page Generate PDF Your Nexans contact on this page
36 x OM4+ Heavy Duty Breakout Plenum Cables - 2.0 mm subunit Berk-Tek’s Heavy Duty Breakout cables are designed for installation in horizontal, industrial and other harsh environments where additional strength and fiber protection is required. Heavy Duty Breakout cables incorporate 900 um tight buffered single-fiber aramid-filled subunits. The standard subunit diameter is 2.0 mm. Additional subunit diameters, including 1.6 mm and 2.5 mm are available. Design options include dielectric, and interlock armored, each with riser and low smoke zero halogen riser jackets. These cables are tested to the mechanical and environmental requirements of Telcordia GR-409 and ANSI/ICEA S-83-596. Berk-Tek’s Heavy Duty Breakout cables are available in Multimode, Single Mode, and GIGAlite fibers.

Description

Construction

Each cable utilizes individual subunits containing a single 900 um tight buffered fiber, surrounded by aramid yarns. Cable design accommodates from 2 to 36 fibers.

  • Each fiber in an individual compact, numbered, aramid-filled subunit
  • Tape wrapped dry core
  • Colored high-strength ripcord
  • Steel or aluminum interlock armored cables available

 

Applications

Berk-Tek’s Heavy Duty Breakout cables are suitable for all passive and active optical network designs requiring high speed voice, video, and data applications, including (but not limited to):

  • 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

  • Multimode, Single-mode, and GIGAliteTM fibers
  • Available with new bend-insensitive single-mode fibers
  • High tensile strength, crush resistant
  • All-dielectric, aluminum or steel interlock armored designs available
  • Water-blocked and harsh environment designs available 

 

Benefits

  • One cable design meeting all structured cabling network communications applications
  • High tensile strength provides for greater pulling distances
  • Ease of installation
  • Broad design selection allows for mix and match of fiber components to specific networking applications
  • Low cable plant maintenance
  • Armor option adds crush resistance and protection from rodent attacks
