Description

Flame-Retardant (FR) Wrapping Tube Cable (WTC) with SpiderWeb Ribbon (SWR) is a high-density fiber optic ribbon cable intended for inside plant and indoor/outdoor network applications where riser-rated products are required.

The FR-WTC-SWR incorporates the leading-edge SpiderWeb Ribbon technology in a robust, flame-retardant cable package that can be used within buildings and, thanks to its core water-blocking feature, can also be routed outside provided the cable is housed within covered pathway spaces including duct-banks and cable trays.

The FR-WTC-SWR product set is available in LSZH, non-armored 250μm ACE fiber (288F), 250μm SR15E fiber (288F, 864F, and 1,728F), and 200μm SR15E fiber (864F and 1728F) constructions.

SWR technology eliminates many of the challenges that data center networks face today and will face in the future, and works to maximize fiber counts, minimize space utilized in ducts and raceways, and simplify high-fiber count installations.

Features and Benefits

  • Collapsible ribbon reduces size of cable compared to other encapsulated or pliable ribbon technologies
  • Design optimizes the fiber packing density making WTC-SWR cables the smallest ribbon cables without compromising robustness of the cable
  • Small-diameter cable allows more optical fibers to be placed into crowded or limited-space pathways
  • Water-blocked core
  • Lightweight for easy handling in the field compared to traditional cables
  • Completely gel-free for reduced time to access fiber and prep for splicing

Applications

  • Riser spaces within build structures
  • Data center inter-building connections
  • Access provider metro rings
  • Service provider FTTx
  • Cable TV subscriber networks
  • Metro rail track-side network links
  • Suitable for aerial lashing, pulled-in-duct, and air-jetted-in-duct
