Totally gel-free cable design with innovative water-
blocking technology
Makes fiber access simple and clean
Medium-density polyethylene jacket
Makes cable rugged and durable while being flexible and
easy to strip
Exceeds the RDUP requirements for mid-span buffer
tube slack storage
Provides flexibility for mid-span access applications
ALTOS

gel-free double-jacket, dielectric cables are
designed for duct and aerial (lashed) installation. The
double-jacket construction adds a layer of protection for
harsh environments. The loose tube cable design pro-
vides stable performance over a wide temperature range
and is compatible with any telecommunications-grade
optical fiber.
