Composite 12 Fiber OM2 with Two 18 AWG Stranded Conductors, Filled Loose Tube
|
|
|
|
|
Berk-Tek’s Composite Copper/Fiber cables incorporate high bandwidth optical fibers with insulated stranded copper TFFN or THWN conductors. A wide variety of design options are available including; up to 7 conductors ranging from #12 AWG to #18 AWG, up to 12 tight buffered fibers or 24 loose tube fibers, and interlock armoring. These cables are listed as CL3R-OF/PLTC-OF. A key application of these cables is to extend the distance that powered devices can be installed from the power source in Power over Ethernet (PoE+) installations. Proper conductor size selection can increase this distance from 328 feet to several thousand feet. The powered device could be an IP camera, a wireless access point, or other building automation device located in an area where an electrical outlet is not readily available.

Description
|
|
Construction
Each cable consists of multiple TFFN or THWN copper conductors and multiple fibers cabled together within an outer jacket. Cable design accommodates from 2 to 7 conductors and 2 to 24 fibers.
- Fibers can be tight buffered or in a loose tube
- Cable is dry-waterblocked for outdoor installations
- Aluminum (standard) or steel interlock armored cables available
Applications
Berk-Tek’s Composite cables are suitable for all power limited applications where optical fibers are needed. Specific applications include (but not limited to):
- Power over Ethernet (PoE+) length extension
- Combining control and communication in industrial pathways
- Common pathway for fiber backbone and Class 3 power supply
- 10BASE-FL
- 100BASE-SX/100BASE-FX
Features
- Multimode, Single-mode, and GIGAliteTM fibers
- CL3R-OF, wet and dry rated
- Aluminum or steel interlock armored designs available
- Indoor/Outdoor dry water-blocked designs available
Benefits
- Enables PoE+ equipment to be located more than 100 meters from the switch
- Cost savings versus installation of a new electrical outlet
- CL3R-OF/PLTC-OF allows cable to be installed in communication pathways
- Ease of installation
- Broad design selection allows for mix and match of copper and fiber components to specific networking applications
- Armor option adds crush resistance and protection from rodent attacks
