OPTIONAL CONSTRUCTION

HCS DataLight Outdoor MLT Cables contain up to 288 color-coded, 250 micron bare optical fibers. 4-12 color-coded bare fibers are contained in each jell-filled loose tube. All loose tubes are cabled (with fillers as needed to preserve the cable geometry) around a solid, all dielectric central strength member and the interstices are filled with water-blocking gel. The cable core is glass yarn armored and jacketed with black, UV resistant PE compound. The cables fully comply with the EIA/TIA FOTP 82B and IEC 60794-1-F5 longitudinal water-blocking tests.
