Corning 72 Strand Singlemode Outdoor FastAccess Fiber Optic Cable - Black
Item#: COR-072ZU4-T4F22D20
Description
Corning 072ZU4-T4F22D20 ALTOS 72 strand fiber optic cable with Binderless* FastAccess technology is an all-dielectric gel-free cable designed for outdoor and limited indoor use for lashed aerial and duct installations. The innovative FastAccess technology feature combined with the gel-free binderless loose tube design simplifies removal of the cable jacket and accessing the buffer tubes. The loose tube design uses Corning's SMF-28 Ultra fiber to provide reliable transmission parameters for a variety of voice, data, video and imaging applications. The cable is fully waterblocked using craft-friendly, water-swellable materials, which means no cleanup 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 midspan 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 handle.
* Corning’s patented Binderless* FastAccess® Technology refers to the combination of a Corning FastAccess Technology jacket with an innovative technology used to bind cable construction through the manufacturing process, eliminating the use of binder yarns and waterblocking tapes.
Features
Binderless FastAccess Technology
Corning's Binderless FastAccess Technology refers to the combination of a Corning FastAccess Technology jacket with an innovative technology used to bind cable construction through the manufacturing process, eliminating the use of binder yarns and waterblocking tapes and resulting in a 25 percent improvement in cable access time. These technologies also reduce the overall risk of inadvertent fiber damage by reducing the need for sharp cable access tools.
Binderless stranded optical core
Elimination of overlapping yarn binders around stranded tubes to reduce end access time
Fully waterblocked loose tube, gel-free design
Simple access and no clean up
Polyethylene jacket
Rugged, durable and easy to strip (while providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion and other environmental factors)
