APPLICATIONS
• Ideal for high-density installations like data centers, central offices and overall premise applications where current or future data rates include 40 and 100 gigabits per second
DESCRIPTION
Single-Jacket Micro Distribution offers 250 micron fiber optic strands in a loose tube design allowing for a higher fiber strand count in a very small overall diameter cable. Each fiber strand is color coded for easy identification. The cable is flexible and easy to handle and uses lightweight, flexible aramid yarns to enhance strength. Subunits with 12 strands are only 2mm in diameter. NanoCore® Interconnect Micro Distribution cable is ideal for MPO (MTP®) style connectors where higher data rates are desired. Supported applications include gigabit, 10 gigabit and 40 gigabit Ethernet. Utilizing Corning Optical Fiber as our standard optic fiber.
