Outdoor multi-tube duct cables are fiber optic cables designed for outdoor installations in ducts, featuring multiple tubes for efficient fiber management and providing reliable high-speed connectivity over long distances in outdoor environments.
- Fiber range: 8-288 cores. Generally single-mode as standard
- Operation temperature is between -20°C to 60°C
- Suitable for various outdoor applications such as telecommunications networks, data centers, industrial environments, and campus installations, providing efficient and reliable fiber optic connectivity for long-distance communication in duct infrastructure. Typically blown into micro ducts previously installed into large ducts
