Fiber Optic Cable
Breakout Cables: Riser and Plenum
ADC’s breakout cables offer quick and easy
connector installation onto jacketed fiber
eliminating the need for splicing or fanout kits.
An outer jacket protects the fiber subunits.
The cable is UL listed plenum or riser as
required for the application. Breakout cable
construction is exceptionally robust and
provides superior mechanical performance
with excellent crush and impact protection.
Features:
• 900 µm tight buffered fibers designed for
one-pass mechanical stripping
• Constructions available with four
to 24 fibers
• Available with 1.6, 2.0, 2.4 and
2.9 mm subunits
• All-dielectric construction includes aramid
yarn tensile strength members
• All cables tested to Telcordia and EIA/TIA
FOTP standards
• Optimized for all standard connectors
• Individual subunits allow for easy routing
of fibers to termination points while
maintaining fiber protection
• Supports critical office and factory
applications
• Armored constructions are also available
Applications:
• Vertical and horizontal networking
