Overview

The Panduit FOLRX12 is a 12-fiber, OM3, Riser (OFCR) rated indoor/outdoor armored tight buffered cable designed for robust and versatile network deployments. This cable features 900um buffered fibers, providing enhanced protection and performance in demanding environments. The interlocking armored construction offers significant crush protection and defense against rodent attacks, eliminating the need for separate conduit or innerduct in many applications. This translates to substantial cost savings in both materials and labor, potentially up to 25%. Its versatile indoor/outdoor design allows for a single cable solution, removing the need for transitions between outside plant and indoor rated cables, which further saves on material costs, labor, and preserves optical loss budgets. The cable utilizes dry water blocking technology with super absorbent polymers, ensuring reliable performance without the mess of traditional gels. It meets or exceeds ISO/IEC 11801 and ANSI/TIA-568.3-D standards, and is RoHS compliant. The Panduit FOLRX12 is ideal for applications requiring a durable, high-density fiber optic solution that can withstand harsh conditions while maintaining signal integrity. This cable is manufactured in the USA.
