Representative Image Description

The representative image shows a cutaway view of the fiber optic cable, revealing its internal structure. From the outside in, it displays the LSZH Outer Jacket, followed by Steel Tape Armoring. Inside the armor are Strength Elements and a Binder. Beneath this is a layer of Mica & Water Swellable Tape, a Ripcord, and another Binder. The core contains multiple 2.5mm Gel Filled Buffer Tubes, each housing 250 micron Fibers. A Dielectric Strength Member is also visible.
