OptoWire AM-L-1FO-5.5KN Aerial Figure-8 Optical Cable
Aerial Fig8 Optical Cable: AM-L (1-24) FO-(3.5-5.5) kNIntroducing the Aerial Fig8 Optical Cable by OptoWire, a trusted brand in high-quality optical solutions. This cable is specifically designed for aerial pole and wall installations, providing outstanding performance and durability for optical communication networks.Featuring a central loose tube structure, the cable accommodates 1 to 24 single-mode optical fibers (G.652D) for exceptional optical transmission. The attenuation levels are ≤0.36 dB/km at 1310 nm and ≤0.22 dB/km at 1550 nm, ensuring reliable performance.Unlike dielectric designs, this cable is reinforced with a galvanized steel messenger wire, delivering a tensile load capacity of 3.5–5.5 kN. It also offers excellent mechanical resistance, including crush resistance of up to 2200 N/10cm, making it suitable for challenging environments.Encased in a robust outer sheath with a nominal thickness of 0.8-1.0 mm, the cable operates reliably within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +70°C. Its weather-resistant construction ensures optimal performance under various environmental conditions, including wind speeds and ice load challenges.Compliant with international standards such as IEC 60794 and ITU-T G.652, the OptoWire Aerial Fig8 Optical Cable combines quality, reliability, and efficiency, making it an ideal choice for modern communication infrastructures.
