LOOSE TUBE VS. RIBBON FIBER CABLING

Central loose tube type fiber optic ribbon cable

Central loose tube type fiber optic ribbon cable

Central loose tube cable contains one tube with 12 fiber ribbons, which is filled with water blocking gel. Either aramid yarn or fiber glass is wound around the tube to provide physical protection and tensile strength. Ribbon cables offer higher fiber counts and greater fiber density than any other cable construction designed for the outside plant (OSP), four times the highest-fiber-count loose tube cable.
