Tailored for various scenarios, our pre-terminated fiber optic assemblies are ideal for headend termination to a fiber backbone, terminating fiber rack systems, multi-floor deployments, and intra-building backbones. Additionally, our indoor plenum-rated jacket assemblies are suitable for all indoor installations, including plenum-rated spaces, meeting the low-smoke characteristics defined by the NFPA (National Fire Protection Agency).
American Cable Assemblies Indoor/Outdoor Plenum Rated Interlocking Armored Fiber Optic Cable Applications:
Our Pre-Terminated Fiber Optic Cable Assemblies, featuring an Indoor/Outdoor Plenum Rated Interlocking Armored Jacket, offer a cost-effective solution for applications requiring innerduct or conduit, ensuring superior crush resistance and versatility. This option eliminates the 50-foot fire code requirement for outdoor cables, making it suitable for various indoor and outdoor installations. The interlocking armored design ensures durability, making it ideal for environments with rodent hazards. These pre-terminated fiber optic assemblies are perfect for headend termination, fiber rack systems, multi-floor deployments, and intra-building backbones, meeting plenum installation standards.
