Actual finished product may vary from illustration. 72 Fibre Stranded Loose Tube Cable with LSZH Sheath Stranded cable comprising up to 72 optical fibres contained in jelly-filled loose tubes (up to 12 fibres per tube). The tubes and fillers are laid around a central strength member and contained within a dry, water blocked cable core, sheathed with a LSZH Jacket. Surface printing includes length marking at one metre intervals.

The LSZH sheath minimizes the flammability content of the cable making it suitable for use indoor in free draining duct and conduit, in protected (non-UV exposed) environments such as road/rail tunnels.

Features:
- Drycore construction resulting in less mess and time lost for fibre breakouts
- LSZH Sheath minimizes flammability content.
Applications:
- Ideal for short & long-haul backbone applications.
- Point-to-Point drop cable for limited duct space.
- Indoor free draining duct & conduit.
Stranded loose tube cable is ideal for short and long haul backbone applications and can be installed in-duct or direct-buried. The water blocked, dry cable core stranded design suits point-point and point-multipoint fibre installations where spur cables are spliced from the backbone. Whilst the Nylon is UV stabilised, AFL recommends the use of an additional sacrificial black PE sheath where the cable will be directly exposed to UV rays.
The tubes and fillers are laid around a central strength member and contained within a dry, water blocked cable core, sheathed with a LSZH Jacket. Surface printing includes length marking at one metre intervals.
