The Universal Fiber Optic Cable -Central Loose Tube-, Non-Metallic Armored Fiber Optic Cable, Also called U-DQ(ZN)H or U-DQ(ZN)BH) are the economical option for low fiber counts, suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Robust structure is a good solution for access and distribution for inside the building for FTTX, FTTH application or those areas where the fiber optic cable may not be exposed to heavy physical damage. The fibers are placed within a gel-filled loose tube. For low core counts up to 12 FO, Universal cables shall be protected from the heavy mechanical damage risk exists. Glass yarns are applied over the tube increasing pulling strength of cable to provide additional tensile strength & rodent protection. Low Smoke Zero Halogen Free sheath which is resistant to stress cracking and UV radiation. Fully dielectric construction protects the fiber optic cable and also the devices connected from the electric shocks or magnetic interferences and also gives flexibility. On request following options are available:
Other number of tubes Colour options for sheath, tube and fiber
Increased Tensile strength (Aramid or Glass Yarn)
L-M-HDPE or LSZH sheath.
U-DQ(ZN)BH version with aramid yarn dielectric strength member is available.
