Description:

AMP OSP(outside plant) cables are designed for campus-type environments, Ducted or Directed burial
underground service for long runs between buildings. AMP cables are tested to the TIA requirements for
optical fiber cable performance, and are designed to exceed all of the performance requirements for current and
proposed applications such as 100BASE-F, 155/622 Mbps, ATM ,AMP NETCONNECT distribution cables has
been designed to meet or exceed the requirements of 10Gigabit while still supporting legacy LED and VCSEL
The system fulfills the specifications of IEE 802.3z,Gigabit Ethernet, IEE 802.3ae,10Gigabit Ethernet. The
cables are available with either singlemode, 62.5-micron Extended Grade or 50-micron and 50/125 Laser
Optimized (XG).

Specification (Text in brackets [ ] requires a choice.)

The optical fiber cable shall contain [4,6,8,12] strain-free [singlemode, 62.5-micron Extend Grade or 50-micron,
50/125-micron laser optimized XG] ] fibers in a central PBT Loose tube surrounded by water-blocking gel,
(Thixotropic Gel) and water blocking glass yarns are placed around the perimeter of the loose tube provide
mechanical strength to the cable, and then a corrugated steel tape (with copolymer coating on both sides) is
then longitudinally applied as armored. TIA/EIA 598 color coded fibers for easy identified, Outer jacket 1.9mm
thickness, HDPE Polyethylene jacket for UV/harsh outdoor environment protection. The cable jacket shall be
black color. The cable shall meet the applicable performance requirements listed in the following tables.
