Loose Tube All-Dielectric Slim Cable Gel Filled
Waveoptics® Loose Tube Slim Cable has a reduced weight design and smaller diameter that allows the usage of smaller ducts.
Loose tubes are more flexible and allow an easier installation and routing, and are filled with water blocking gel.
PE single jacket with additives makes a resistant, durable and easy to strip cable, providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion and other environmental factors.
