Industrial LSZHTM Tray-Rated, Loose Tube, Gel-Free Cable
12 F, 50 µm multimode (OM3)

Corning industrial LSZHTM fiber optic cables are designed for industrial building backbones and harsh environments atypical of traditional datacom systems. Based on proven stranded loose tube cable designs, these tray-rated industrial cables are flame-retardant and have been tested to meet mechanical/environmental conditions exceeding the requirements set for traditional datacom cables. They have also demonstrated superior performance levels when tested to specified “tray” application requirements for compressive loading, cyclic impact and chemical resistance. The 250 m color- coded individual fibers offer quick and easy identification during installation.
Note: This cable is available in 12 different jacket colors ­ blue, orange, green, brown, slate, white, red, black, yellow, violet, rose and aqua. The colored jacket allows for easy visual identification of the cables while still providing all of the required environmental protection of an indoor/ outdoor cable jacket. Black is the standard jacket color using the part numbers shown here. Contact Customer Care at 1-800-743-2675 to order other color options.
