Wisconsin-based TechLogix Networx has launched OSPFiber to simplify outdoor fiber optic cable runs with a single cable rated for direct burial, FTTH (fiber-to-the-home/fiber-to-the-business) drop, and aerial scenarios. OSPFiber is a cost-effective solution for outdoor ISP, broadband, and network applications.
“Available in two-strand, six-strand, and 12-strand configurations, OSPFiber combines bend-insensitive single-mode fiber with an outdoor-rated ruggedized jacket and integrated steel messenger wire for aerial suspension or underground toning,” says Cameron Smith, NSI VP. “Two-strand OSPFiber features TechLogix’s unique ‘quick strip’ technology, allowing the outer jacked to be unzipped and removed for fast in-field termination. Six-strand and 12-strand OSPFiber feature a loose tube buffer design with integrated rip-cord for in-field termination.”
