Fire Resistant Tight Buffered Distribution Fiber Optic cables

MTA-B-C-D-H-FR

Application

This cables are used for interconnection of distribution boxes and end devices, where continued functionality is

required during a fire situation. The cables are very suitable for various indoor and outdoor applications,

including routing between buildings within ducts and inside building up to riser shafts.

Standards

Basic design to Telcordia GR409-CORE / TIA/EIA 568B.3 / ICEA-S-83-596

Cable Construction

Optical fibers: Singlemode and multimode tight fibers, with tight buffer coating.

Fire Barrier: The tight buffered fibers are wrapped with fire blocking fiber glass yarns.

Inner Sheath(optional): Thermoplastic LSZH compound type LTS3 as per BS 7655-6.1

Ripcord(optional): An optional ripcord can be located under the outer sheath to facilitate jacket removal.

Armouring(optional):

STA: Corrugated steel tape armour

SWB: Steel wire braid

Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic LSZH compound type LTS3 as per BS 7655-6.1 (Thermosetting LSZH compound

type SW2-SW4 as per BS 7655-2.6 can be offered.)

Physical and thermal properties

Temperature range during operation (fixed state): -20°C - +60°C

Temperature range during installation (mobile state): 0°C - +50°C

Minimum bending radius: 10 times the outer diameter for unarmoured cables

20 times the outer diameter for armoured cables
