Indoor/Outdoor Plenum Premises Distribution (PDP-I/O, ICP-I/O)

This fiber optic cable is designed for installation in plenum, riser  and horizontal environments and interbuilding backbone structures.

This design incorporates tight buffered optical fibers within a dry water blocked cable core.  Suitable for operation across wide temperature variations typically addressed by outside plant cables.  No Buffer Tube Fanout kits are required.  Direct termination is enabled.

Construction

Each cable utilizes our DryGel water blocking system in the cable core.  Cable design can accommodate from 2-144 tight buffered (900 µm) fibers.  All dielectric.

Aluminum Interlocking Armor (Armor-Tek) versions are available.

Outdoor Considerations

These water-blocked cables feature fungus resistant jacketing, and are sunlight resistant per UL 444 clause 7.22.

For use in conduit, below the frost line.

Loose Tube cables are recommended if interbuilding conduit systems lie above the frost line and are likely to fill with water.

 Tight Buffer fiber cables are not suitible for aerial-lashed installations.
