432 x OM2 Adventum Riser with Interlock Armor
|
|
|
|
|
Berk-Tek’s Adventum Armor-Tek™ products consist of indoor/outdoor rated fiber optic loose tube cables encased with an aluminum or steel spirally wrapped armor in an interlocking configuration. The armored cable is then covered with a riser rated jacket to prevent snags during installation.

Description
|
|
Construction
Loose tube cable constructions (up to 432 optical fibers) with aluminum interlock armor and an overall flame rated jacket. Steel interlock is available.
Applications
Armor-Tek fiber cables can be used in any of the following installation evironments: indoor, indoor/outdoor, in backbones, between closets and in fiber to the desk. Armor-Tek is a viable and cost effective solution for applications where a pathway is beyond its fill ratio, for areas where extra physical security is a concern, in fast track installations, between buildings, direct buried, or in trays.
Available Harsh Environment (HE), cables offer superior resistance to chemicals and fuels. Suitable for Petro-Chemical, Industrial, and airport installations.
Berk-Tek recommends installation procedures per ANSI/TIA-758, Customer-owned Outside Plant Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard.
Berk-Tek's Adventum Loose Tube fiber optic cables (U.S. Patent No. 6,178,278) are suitable for all passive and active optical network designs requiring high speed data applications, including (but not limited to):
- 10BASE-FL
- 100BASE-SX/100BASE-FX
- ATM 155/ATM622
- 1000BASE-SX/1000BASE-LX
- Fibre Channel 1.062/2.125
- 10GBASE-SR/SW
- 10GBASE-LX4
Features
- Jacketed armor that remains flexible due to the spiral wrap armoring process
- The armored design allows for an easy one-pull installation into any environment
- Aluminum or steel interlock armor is available
- Aluminum interlock offers 10 to 13 times the impact resistance over all-dielectric optical cable
- Compact outside diameters when compared to plenum innerduct or conduit
- Interlocking armor available without an overjacket
Benefits
- Eliminate the need for conduit or plenum innerduct by installing interlock armor cable, providing a significant cost savings in both materials and labor
- Extremely durable cables for hazardous environments or difficult cable installations
- Installation time can be reduced by as much as 60% versus installing conduit or innerduct
- Armor-Tek optical fibers cables accommodate last minute relocations or pathway changes whereas innerduct or conduit is not a flexible alternative
- Armor-Tek cables are not governed by fill ratios because they are UL listed as cable assemblies, allowing higher concentrations of cables in an area than allowed with conduit
- Can be installed in campus environments when used with indoor/outdoor rated cables such as Adventum
- Provides additional protection and security for your fiber backbone due to the ruggedness of the armoring materials
