Frequently Asked Questions
What is an OS2 576F trunk cable used for?
The OS2 576F trunk cable is designed for high-capacity fiber optic backbone connections in data centers, telecommunications facilities, and enterprise networks. With 576 fibers, it supports multiple parallel connections for 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet applications, making it ideal for organizations requiring scalable, future-proof network infrastructure.
Why is LSZH jacket material important?
LSZH (Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen) jacket material is critical for safety in enclosed spaces like data centers and building risers. In the event of fire, LSZH cables emit minimal smoke and no toxic halogen gases, protecting equipment and personnel while maintaining air quality and visibility for emergency response.
What does OFNR fire rating mean?
OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Riser) is a fire safety rating that certifies the cable for use in vertical riser applications within buildings. OFNR-rated cables meet strict flammability standards and are required by building codes in many jurisdictions for inter-floor installations.
How does CCA armor protect the fiber trunk?
CCA (Central Core Armor) construction wraps a protective layer around the fiber bundle, shielding it from physical damage, crushing forces, and environmental hazards during installation and operation. This armor extends cable lifespan and reduces costly downtime from accidental damage.
