Description of breakout fiber optic cable

optical breakout cable also can be called as distribution fiber optical cable is designed for Indoor uses. There are two types of breakout fiber cables. One is inside with 2.0/3.0mm tight buffered cables. The fiber glass cores of this cable structure commonly can reach 48 cores. The other is inside with 0.9mm tight buffered around with Kevlar yarn as strengthen support.

Description of Breakout Fiber Optic Cable

12 core fiber optic cable also can be called as distribution fiber optic cable is designed for indoor uses. There are two type of fiber breakout optic cable. One is inside with 2.0/3.0mm tight buffered optical cables. The fiber cores of this fiber optic cable structure commonly can reach 48 cores. Another is inside with 0.9mm tight buffered and the fiber cores is 24-288 cores.

Both types of breakout fiber optic cable can be reinforced with aramid yarns to provide additional tensile strength and protect the fragile optical fibers inside. Aramid yarn is a key component of fiber optic breakout box, providing enhanced strength, protection and stability. Its high tensile strength and resistance to external factors make it an excellent choice for reinforcing fiber optic cables and ensuring the longevity and reliability of optical connections.

Outer Jacket Material Selection for Breakout Fiber Optic Cable

The outer jacket material of fiber optic cables plays a vital role in protecting and ensuring the performance of the optical cables. Here are some common types of outer jacket materials used in fiber optic cables:

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): PVC is a widely used material for the outer jacket of fiber optic cables. PVC jackets are generally cost-effective and have good flame retardant properties. However, they release toxic fumes when burned.

LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen): LSZH optical cable are designed to minimize the release of smoke and toxic halogens when exposed to high heat or fire.

Anti-Fire (OFNR, OFNP): These designations refer to specific fire safety standards for fiber optic cables.

OFNR optical cables are suitable for vertical runs within buildings, such as between floors or within riser shafts. They have fire-resistant jackets that restrict the spread of fire and do not emit excessive smoke or toxic gases when burning.

OFNP optical cables are used in plenum spaces, which are areas in buildings used for air circulation. Plenum spaces require optical cables with low smoke and flame propagation characteristics to prevent the spread of fire and the release of harmful fumes.

Some fiber optic cables are designed with an outer jacket that provides protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV-resistant jackets are commonly used in outdoor installations to prevent damage caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight.

When choosing the appropriate outer jacket material for fiber optic cables, factors such as the application environment, fire safety requirements, and budget should be considered. It is essential to select a jacket material that meets the specific needs of the installation to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the fiber optic cables.

The Application of Breakout Fiber Optic Cable

Breakout fiber optic cables are commonly used in cable trays for indoor cabling applications. Breakout fiber optic cables can be routed through cable trays using appropriate cable management systems. They offer benefits such as easy handling, improved organization, and reliable data transmission.

Breakout fiber optic cables are also commonly used to produce fiber optic pigtails or fiber optic patch cords. By stripping back the outer jacket and tight-buffered coating of the breakout fiber optic cable, individual fibers can be accessed for termination with connectors.
