Proterial Cable America’s armored tight-buffered fiber cable uses lightweight aluminum interlock armor to ensure it’s flexible, strong, and easy to handle. This RoHS 3 armored fiber cable offers significant cost savings by eliminating the need for an inner duct or conduit, which makes it an ideal intra-building plenum cable solution.
The 900μm tight buffered armored cable design allows for easy termination. All multi mode and single mode cables (except OM1) utilize color-coded bend-insensitive Corning optical fibers. Supported applications include Gigabit, 10 Gigabit, and 40 Gigabit Ethernet.

With bend-insensitive optic fibers (except OM1), our armored fiber optic cable is built for reliable data transmission in Gigabit, 10G, 40G (and listed support for 100G) across building distribution.
This is our indoor applications plenum model. For outdoor applications, use our Indoor/Outdoor Armored Tight-Buffered Plenum instead (still armored and plenum-listed).
Yes. The aluminum interlock armor provides integral physical protection so you can eliminate innerduct/conduit on many jobs, reducing installation process time and lowering cost.
