The LMHD-Series OSP Heavy Duty MicroCore® Cable from AFL is engineered for maximum durability and flexibility in challenging installations. Its thick-walled outer jacket can be directly lashed to aerial messenger wires, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding environments while also deterring rodent damage without increasing the cable's outer diameter. Designed for long-haul, local loop FTTx, and campus backbone connections, this cable supports high-speed network transmission rates of up to 100G, making it an excellent choice for contemporary fiber-optic communication needs. This cable features a compact design with a small diameter, enhancing air-jetting capabilities compared to conventional loose tube cables while boasting a robust 600 lb tensile load rating to match traditional underground options. With the availability of toneable options, locating the cable path is simplified through standard electromagnetic detectors, thus ensuring efficient installation processes. Offered in a range of fiber counts from 12 up to 432, it accommodates congested pathway installations effortlessly, making it a versatile solution for modern telecommunication infrastructures.
