MSS Fibre 12F LOOSE TUBE CABLE OM4 PEnYLON CAB-LT-12-MM4

Description

Designed for Outdoor Fibre Infrastructure

The MSS Fibre 12F OM4 Loose Tube Cable (CAB-LT-12-MM4) is designed for outdoor fibre optic installations requiring a durable cable construction and protection against moisture ingress. Featuring 12 multimode OM4 fibres, this loose tube cable supports fibre connectivity for commercial, industrial and telecommunications infrastructure projects.

Its construction combines a polyethylene (PE) inner sheath with a blue polyamide nylon outer jacket. The PE sheath provides UV resistance, while the nylon jacket offers additional resistance to ultraviolet exposure and insect or termite damage. These features make the cable suitable for demanding outdoor environments where protection and long-term installation reliability are important.

Water-Blocking Loose Tube Construction

The cable incorporates gel-filled loose tubes and a dry-blocked core to help prevent water from travelling along the cable. Thixotropic gel within the tubes helps protect the optical fibres against moisture ingress, while water-blocking tape and swellable yarns provide additional protection throughout the core.

A non-metallic, fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) central strength member provides tensile support without using a metallic strength element. This construction is suited to fibre installations where non-metallic cable components are required. Polyester-based rip cords also assist with sheath removal during installation and termination, helping technicians access the cable core more conveniently.

Flexible Installation Options

The MSS CAB-LT-12-MM4 is designed for direct burial underground installations as well as conduit and duct applications, subject to the project’s installation requirements. Its combination of water-blocking features, protective sheathing and non-metallic reinforcement makes it a practical option for outdoor network infrastructure.

The blue nylon jacket also helps identify the cable during installation and maintenance. For contractors and network installers, this 12-fibre OM4 cable offers a purpose-built solution for projects requiring multimode fibre connectivity and environmental protection.
