Description
Part Number & Structural Breakdown
The model code directly reflects its robust structural layout:
- 144F: 144 total optical fibers, providing high-density network scaling.
- LT (Loose Tube): Loose-tube architecture protects the glass fibers from physical strain, temperature fluctuations, and environmental moisture.
- SASJ (Single Armor Single Jacket): Equipped with a corrugated steel armor layer wrapped under a single high-density outer jacket (typically HDPE). This configuration yields premier protection against rodent damage, high crush impact, and mechanical shearing.
- 12: Consists of 12 color-coded buffer tubes, each housing exactly 12 fibers to complete the 144-strand layout.
- TEL: Indicates genuine manufacturing by Teldor Cables & Systems.
- E-D: Typically designates the inclusion of standard G.652.D single-mode glass core fiber (such as Corning SMF28e+ technology), optimized for 1310nm and 1550nm transmissions over long distances.
Core Technical Specifications
- Water Blocking: Built with dry water-swellable materials and water-blocking yarns inside the core matrix to halt moisture ingress without the mess of traditional gels.
- Central Strength Member (CSM): Features a robust dielectric central strength member to anchor the structure and prevent buckling.
- Tensile & Load Ratings: Rated for approximately 600 lbs of short-term tensile strength during deployment.
- Installation Mechanics: Outer diameter averages ~14.0 mm to 15.8 mm depending on the exact casing options, requiring a minimum installation bend radius of 20 times the outer diameter.
