Fiber Optic Cables
Breakout PVC Jacketed Cable
Application
Breakout Cable is designed for routing to different locations and direct termination of fi bers in the fi eld. The
cable is mostly suitable for pre-terminated cable assemblies.
Description
The cable contains 2 to 36 fi bers which are individually buffered tight or semi-tight construction. Each fi ber is
individually protected in a mini cable. Aramid yarn will be applied either inside the mini cable or within the inner
jacket of the cable. The color coded mini cable may be stranded around a central strength member which can be
either FRP or fl exible all-dielectric. Outer Jacket may be PVC or LSZH.
