SM Multi Loose Tube Mica Wrapped LSZH Inner Jacket Steel Wire Braided LSZH Outer Jacket Fire Resisting
FO Cable
General Description
This document specifies multi loose tube cable with steel central strength member, containing up to 36 tube and
each tube contain up to 6 or 8 fibers. Jelly filled loose tubes are wrapped with mica and fire resisting tape. The
cable jacket incorporates LSZH inner jacket, steel wire braiding and LSZH outer jacket. All the fibers in the cores
are filled with water blocking gel.
Optical Characteristics
The single-mode cabled fibers meet or exceed the requirements of ITUT G.652D and comply with IEC60793-2, as
listed in below:

Basic Construction
12 Fibers, Loose Tube Fiber optic Cable
﹡Optical Fiber
Single-mode fibers meet or exceed the requirements of ITUT G.652D specification
﹡Central Strength Member
2.5mm steel wire central strength member. PE is coated over the steel if necessary.
﹡Loose Tube
PBT tubes, 1.80.1 mm outer diameter, contains 1-6 fibers each. The tubes are filled with a thixotropic gel to
prevent the ingress of water. Mica tape wraps each loose tube helically.
﹡Fire Resisting Tape
Fire resisting tape provides additional protection against fire.
﹡Inner Jacket
LSZH inner jacket is extruded over the cable core. The thickness is normally 1.0mm.
﹡Steel Wire Braiding
Steel wire braiding is applied over the inner jacket. Outer diameter of the steel wire is 0.2mm
﹡Outer Jacket
LSZH outer jacket is extruded over the armor. Nominal thickness is about 1.8mm
﹡Marking
The meter mark is printed every meter with an accuracy of 0.5%. Other printing are available according to customer request.
﹡Length of Optical Cable
Standard length of each reel will be 1,000-2,000 meters.
