MSS Fibre 12F LOOSE TUBE OM3 ARMOUR PE/CST/PEnYLO CAB-LT-12-MM3CST

Description

MSS Fibre 12F OM3 CST Armoured Loose Tube Cable

The MSS Fibre CAB-LT-12-MM3CST is a 12-fibre OM3 multimode loose tube cable designed for fibre optic installations requiring additional mechanical and environmental protection. Featuring corrugated steel tape (CST) armour, this cable provides a rodent-resistant construction suitable for demanding telecommunications and network infrastructure projects.

Its loose tube design incorporates gel-filled tubes to help prevent water ingress, while water-blocking tape and water-swellable yarns provide additional protection throughout the cable core. These features make it a practical option for installations where moisture management is an important consideration.

Protective Armour and Durable Outer Sheath

The cable features corrugated steel tape armour to help protect the internal fibre construction against rodent damage and external mechanical influences. A black polyethylene (PE) inner sheath provides an additional protective layer, while the blue polyamide nylon outer jacket offers UV and insect/termite resistance as specified by the manufacturer.

Polyester-based rip cords simplify sheath removal during installation and preparation, helping technicians access the cable’s internal components during termination and maintenance. These construction features support practical handling across suitable outdoor and underground cable routes.

Reliable Fibre Infrastructure for Installation Projects

The non-metallic glass fibre reinforced plastic central strength member provides tensile strength to support cable installation. Combined with the loose tube construction and water-blocking components, it helps protect the optical fibres in appropriately designed network infrastructure.

The CAB-LT-12-MM3CST is intended for direct-burial and conduit or duct applications, subject to the project’s installation requirements and applicable standards. Its 12-fibre OM3 configuration makes it suitable for multimode fibre links in commercial, industrial and telecommunications infrastructure where the specified fibre type and cable protection are required.
