The FR-WTC-SWR incorporates the leading-edge SpiderWeb Ribbon technology in a robust, flame-retardant cable package that can be used within buildings and, because of the core water-blocking feature, can also be routed outside provided the cable is housed within covered pathway spaces including duct-banks and cable trays. The FR-WTC-SWR product set is available in LSZH, UL 1666 Riser Rated, CPR Classification, non-armored 250 μm SR15E fiber (288F) and 200 μm SR15E-200 fiber (864F and 1728F) constructions. Features • Collapsible ribbon reduces size of cable compared to other encapsulated or pliable ribbon technologies • Design optimizes the fiber packing density making WTC-SWR cables the smallest ribbon cables without compromising robustness of the cable • Small-diameter cable allows more optical fibers to be placed into crowded or limited- space pathways • Water-blocked core • Light weight for easy handling in the field compared to traditional cables • Completely Gel-free for reduced time to access fiber and prep for splicing SWR Technology Cable Components 12F SWR Multiple 12F SWR bundle 72F OR 144F bundles depending on cable fiber count Contrahelical dual binder system OFNR-LS Non-armored (288F, 864F, 1728F) SWR bundle unit Water-blocking tape Strength member (FRP) Sheath (FR-PE) © 2019, AFL, all rights reserved.

Features:

  • Collapsible ribbon reduces size of cable compared to other encapsulated or pliable ribbon technologies
  • Design optimizes the fiber packing density making WTC-SWR cables the smallest ribbon cables without compromising robustness of the cable
  • Small-diameter cable allows more optical fibers to be placed into crowded or limited-space pathways
  • Small Diameter: Because of the smaller diameter, more optical fibers can be placed into crowded or limited-space pathways
  • Water-blocked Core
  • Light weight for easy handling in the field compared to traditional cables
  • Completely Gel-free for reduced time to access fiber and prep for splicing

Applications:

  • Riser spaces within build structures
  • Data Center Inter-building Connections
  • Access Provider Metro Rings
  • Service Provider FTTx
  • Cable TV Subscriber Networks
  • Metro Rail Track-side Network Links
  • Suitable for Aerial Lashing, Pulled-in-duct, Air-Jetted-in-Duct
