200 m Wrapping Tube Cable WTC with SWR

200 µm Wrapping Tube Cable (WTC) with SWR®

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

Applications:

  • 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
  • Campus LAN
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AFL's Wrapping Tube Cable (WTC), with SpiderWeb Ribbon® (SWR®), is an ultra-high density, outside plant cable designed specifically for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) or access markets. It is compliant with the latest issue of the outside plant cable standard, Telcordia GR-20. With an ultra-high density and a new ribbon technology called SpiderWeb Ribbon®, WTC provides the smallest cable diameter and lowest weight, high-fiber count ribbon cable in the industry. WTC with SWR® cables are available in 200 µm fiber/200 µm pitch and 200 µm fiber/250 µm pitch with fiber counts of 864 to 6,912.
 
SWR® is a bonded fiber ribbon design allowing for either a highly efficient ribbon splicing or an individual fiber breakout splicing process. This flexibility allows for a single cable design to cover a diverse set of applications from access networks to high-fiber count mass fusion splicing. With the ability to roll and conform, the SWR® provides for ultra-high density packaging in the WTC.
