Armored Patchcord - 1 Fiber
Armored patchcords can be laid in all kinds of harsh environments. It has stainless steel tube to protect optical fibers and provides better security for the whole system.
Structures:
- Armored cable offers 0.6mm tight buffer fibers.
- Kevlar yarn member offers high strength.
- Armored cable has a flexiblesteel armored tube to increase the cable’s twist resistance.
Features:
- Flexible stainless steel tube to protect optical fibers from damage
- Good performance of torsion, tensile strength, pressure, and anti-rodent
- Various connectors are available complying with international standard, such as FC/SC/ST/MU/LC, etc
Applications:
- CATV
- LAN & WAN
- National defense
- Telecommunication networks
- FTTX, FTTH (Fiber to the Home)

Armored Cable
Structures:
- Armored cable offers 0.6mm tight buffer fibers.
- Kevlar yarn member offers high strength.
- Armored cable has a flexible steel armored tube to increase the cable’s twist resistance.
- Metal braid as optional offers good performance of anti-torsion to avoid fiber damage.
Features:
- High intensity and light weight
- Excellent flame resistant performance
- Good mechanical and environmental property
- Soft and flexible, convenient for connection and construction
Applications:
- Pigtails and patchcords and indoor distribution
- Ideal for use in vertical cabling of buildings and LAN
- Ideal for use in backbone network, and connect from outdoor to indoor directly
- Infrastructure cabling, especially on the extremely harsh environmental condition for construction
