Molex Advanced Fiber Optic Loose Tube Indoor/Outdoor cables utilizes dry water blocking technology with super absorbent polymers rather than traditional petroleum based gels both inside the fiber tubes and the core of the cable. Molex offers designs for both plenum (OFNP) flame rated and non-plenum (riser/OFNR) flame rated applications while meeting the demanding requirements for outside plant installations. The versatile design allows users to install a single cable for both their indoor and outdoor environments without mechanical or optical compromise. Molex Loose Tube Indoor/Outdoor cables are available in 50μm, 62.5μm multimode and singlemode fibers.

Available only in the USA.

Features & Benefits Technical Info Related Products
  • All dielectric cable construction requires no grounding or bonding
  • Totally dry watered blocked cable requires no cleaning of gels while fully meeting water blocking requirements of gel filled cables
  • No transition required from outside plant cable to tight buffered flame rated indoor cable
  • No transition means material cost savings, labor savings and optical loss budget savings
