STL's Tight Buffer optical fiber cable portfolio is designed for access and indoor-outdoor network applications requiring flexibility, durability, and easy installation. Individually tight-buffered fibers enable simplified handling, connectorization, and reliable performance. The portfolio includes Drop/Toneable cables, delivering efficient last-mile connectivity and dependable fiber access in demanding deployment environments.
STL RapidDrop Flat Drop Toneable Fiber Optic Cable offers ease of installation in an easy-access, single-tube design. The toneable version adds a 24 AWG conductor that provides underground location tracing and is attached by a web for easy tear-away separation from the cable—the most popular option for underground and multipurpose installation.
STL RapidDrop Flat Drop Dielectric Fiber Optic Cable offers ease of installation in an easy-access, single-tube design. This cable has optical fibers presented in a tube filled with a thixotropic gel and enclosed in a thermoplastic sheath. The cable has two embedded strength members to avoid buckling. The dielectric version eliminates any bonding and grounding requirements.
- Unparalleled resistance against buckling, ensuring structural integrity in challenging conditions.
- Ensures the cable's longevity and performance even in demanding environmental conditions.
- Superior longitudinal water protection for transmission quality and cable longevity in wet environments.
- Protects against water ingress, ensuring reliable performance over time.
- Facilitates easy access to individual fibers, streamlining installation, maintenance, and upgrades.
- Optimizes operational efficiency and minimizes downtime, saving time and resources.
- Engineered for maximum strength, ensuring high tensile and crush resistance.
- Available with steel wire as an embedded strength member for higher tensile strengths, meeting demanding installation needs.
