Fiber Optic Cable 1 continued Cable Components Applications • Headend termination to a fiber “backbone” • Termination of fiber rack systems • Intra-building “backbones” • MTP/MPO or MTP to breakout terminations Features • Available with 250 μm bare fiber or SpiderWeb Ribbon (SWR) optical fiber technology • Bare Fiber counts 6 to 72 • SWR Fiber counts 12 to 144 • Installation tension rating of 150 lbs. Ruggedized MicroCore ® Cable AFL Ruggedized MicroCore (CPR) is the next generation of maximizing fiber density in AFL’s line of high density data center cables. Ruggedized MicroCore is an industry leading alternative to a traditional inside plant, central core loose tube ribbon cable. Both standard 250 μm based fiber and AFL revolutionary Spiderweb Ribbon ® Technology designs are available. SWR ® technology eliminates concerns associated with edge fiber stresses due to preferential bend of encapsulated ribbons. These cables consist of OFNP/FT6 (NFPA 262) or LSZH (including ONFR-ST1/FT4) flame-rated outer jacket with an installation tension rating of 150 lbs. qualified to meet and exceed the requirements of the latest Telcordia GR-409-CORE inside plant cabling requirements.
