LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal Cca

Description and application

The LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal cable is a fibre cable that can be used indoor and outdoor in a duct.

It complies with the indoor fire requirements and can be installed indoor both vertically and horizontally.

The LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal can also be used for outdoor installation in a duct: the water tight glass yarns make the cables fully waterproof and rodent retardant.

The LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal cable has 900 um buffered fibres. This second coating till 900 um provides additional protection of the fibres and facilitates the handling when terminating the fibres in a patch panel. The easy strip tight buffer design allows stripping the fibre over 10 cm in one action.

The LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal is most suitable for direct termination by either anaerobic or hot melt connectors. The tight buffered fibres can also be terminated with splicing of pigtails.

Tight buffer cables are available in Aqua for OM3 and OM4 and Yellow for singlemode.  High exposure to UV radiation and sunlight could lead to fading of the Aqua and Yellow jacket, but the mechanical integrity of the cable jacket will be maintained.
