Description
Loose Tube / Gel-Filled / All Dielectric
Single Jacket None Armored Optical Fiber Cable
Lexington Ames LA-ABC-001 series is ideal for air-blown installation in microducts, engineered and tested for existing microduct brands. The ODs range from 0.213″ (5.4mm) for less than 72 fiber count to 0.378″ (9.6mm) for 288 fiber count. The LA-ABC-001, Single Mode, 9/125, G.652.D is manufactured with GR-20 certified glass. Available in fiber counts from 12 to 288, the cable is sold in a reel of 13,000 to 20,000feet. The cable is designed and manufactured to travel at least 5,000 feet within microducts in most cases.
Standards and Certifications
