4mm Cable 24 Fiber

The 4mm cable is an outdoor waterproof non-metallic cable design. The cable contains a central jell-filled tube with a wrapping of aramid-yarn for tensile strength. The outer sheath is black polypropylene.

This durable cable design is ideal for access networks. The reduced size and flexibility of this cable allow for slack to be stored in a very compact space. The cable can be blown into conduits or zipped into the VDC family of conduits.
