Description<br />
The ANTEC LightPath fiber bundle cable is a small diameter,<br />
lightweight fiber optic cable specially designed for use in<br />
direct buried, duct and lashed aerial applications. This cable<br />
can contain from 4 to 96 optical fibers, bundled and easily<br />
identified by colored thread binders, and housed in a single,<br />
central buffer tube.<br />
Designed to resist environmental damage, the central buffer<br />
tube is filled with water blocking gel that retards water migration<br />
which can adversely affect performance. For added protection,<br />
a corrugated steel armor over the central buffer tube guards the<br />
cable from rodents.<br />
The LightPath fiber bundle cable’s simple sheath construction<br />
provides quick, easy cable entry—ideal for mid-span access.<br />
This cable is reinforced with two steel wires, longitudinally laid<br />
180° opposed along the steel armor, for tensile strength. Highly<br />
visible aramid ripcords, located by each steel wire, make cable<br />
entry quick and easy, so no special tools are required. A<br />
smooth black medium density polyethylene (MDPE) sheath is<br />
extruded over the armor and wires. LightPath fiber bundle<br />
cable is available in all-dielectric configuration for lashed aerial<br />
or duct installations.<br />
