ALTOS Loose Tube, Gel-Free, All-Dielectric Cable with FastAccess(TM) Technology, 6 fiber, 50 µm multimode (OM3)
Spec SheetDescription
Corning ALTOS cable with FastAccess technology is an all-dielectric gel-free cable designed for outdoor and limited indoor use for campus backbones in lashed aerial and duct installations. The innovative FastAccess technology feature combined with the all-dielectric gel-free loose tube design simplifies removal of the cable jacket reducing cable end access time by at least 50 percent. Equally important is the overall reduction in risk of inadvertent fiber damage and risk to installers from sharp cab le access tools. The cable is fully waterblocked using craft-friendly, water-swellable materials, which means no clean up is required. The flexible buffer tubes are easy to route in closures, and the SZ-stranded, loose tube design isolates fibers from installation and environmental rigors while allowing easy mid-span access. The all-dielectric gel-free cable construction requires no bonding or grounding, and these cables have a medium-density polyethylene jacket that is rugged, durable and easy to h andle. A variety of fiber types are available including 62.5 um and 50 um, single-mode and hybrid versions, as well as fibers with Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance.
