UCFIBRE® MT SERIES

2-24 Cores, Indoor Tight Buffer Distribution Cable, LSZH Sheath

Overview

One of the most widely used UCFIBRE™ Indoor cable, MT series is excellent for indoor installation that provides a safe setup against flame propagation and its flexible yet robust construction makes installation at ease.

Additional Options

  • PVC Sheath for indoor applications
  • PE Sheath for outdoor applications
  • Steel Wire Braiding for armouring protection

Features

  • Tight buffer: Each fibre is coated to 0.9mm with LSZH
  • Strength Member : Aramid yarn
  • Outer Sheath:LSZH compliant to IEC 61034,IEC 60754-1&2,IEC 60332-1 & IEC 60332-3-24
  • Suitable for indoor installation requiring flame retardant, low smoke and halogen free environment

Ordering Information
UCFIBRE™ MT SERIES FO Cable part numbers are made up using the table below.The part number always starts with the letters MT to denote that it is a UCFIBRE™.MT SERIES FO cable. This is followed by 3 n umbers which symbolises the core quantity and then 2 letters yo denote the fibre type.Example of a UCFIBRE™ MT SERIES FO Cable part number: MT008M1 The above example describes an OM1(62.5Sum, Orange Sheath) FIBRE™ MT SERIES FO Cable, with 8 cores.
