Standard Ribbon Indoor/Outdoor Riser Central Tube Cables

Indoor/Outdoor Riser Ribbon Fiber Cable

Sumitomo Electric Lightwave’s Standard Ribbon Indoor/Outdoor Riser Central Tube Cables feature 250μm color-coded optical fibers for easy fiber identification, and Sumitomo’s exclusive patented easy split and peel technology for easy fiber access, and unprecedented ease of handling and splicing. The 12-fiber ribbons enable connectorization with both MPO and all industry-standard connectors. The non-preferential bend axis allows for easy installation in space-constrained areas.

The cables include a dielectric strength member with a flexible, flame-retardant outer jacket in their all-dielectric cable construction that eliminates grounding or bonding. The cables also eliminate the need for installers to switch from an outside plant to a premise cable when transitioning from the outside plant to the inside plant. The cables meet OFNR and CSA FT4 specifications and are available in all fiber types.
