Corning LSZH™ UltraRibbon™ cables are designed for horizontal intrabuilding backbones where limited-smoke and zero-halogen requirements exist. These cables are organized with 12-fiber ribbons inside a central tube that are surrounded by dielectric strength members and a specially formulated flame-retardant outer jacket. The 12-fiber ribbons have readily identifiable ribbon ID numbers and fiber colors that allow for easy access to individual fibers.
The precise fiber and ribbon geometries result in excellent mass splicing yields. The ribbon riser cables are compatible with standard ribbon cable procedures and hardware.
This cable is available in 12 different jacket colors – blue, orange, green, brown, slate, white, red, black, yellow, violet, rose and aqua. The colored jacket allows for easy visual identification of the cables. The standard jacket color will be determined by the dominant fiber type in the cable and will use the standard part numbers shown here.
