AFLglobal.com | 800.235.3423 Fiber Optic Cable Applications • Distribution • Underground Duct • Long Haul Networking • Building Interconnections (Campus LAN) • Trunking Lines Direct to Telecommunications Closet • Local Loop • Distance Learning • Intrabuilding Backbone Features • Up to 288 fibers in cable • Compact design • Gel-filled tubes are reverse-oscillated (SZ stranded) to allow slack for mid-span access Non-Armored OSP Loose Tube (LE Series SJ) Acting as the backbone for most of today’s fiber based systems, stranded fiber optic cables play a critical role in the high speed network. AFL’s Non-Armored Loose Tube fiber optic cables are designed to provide high fiber counts up to 288, which offers the flexibility and versatility required for today’s standard installations. continued Cable Components Fiber Specifications CORE SIZE/FIBER TYPE AFL FIBER IDENTIFIER ISO/IEC MAXIMUM ATTENUATION ( dB/km ) OVERFILL LAUNCH MIN.
