FEATURES
•Designed for backbone, horizontal, and interbuilding installations.
•High-performance, tight-buffer coating on each fiber provides environmental and mechanical protection.
•Suitable for indoor use. It’s flame- retardant, and fungus-, water-, and UV-resistant.
•Economical for long-distance runs.
•Features an easily strippable 900-µm coating for convenient handling.
•Flexible subunit design enables easy routing of group fibers. Includes tight- buffered, single-jacket construction with subunits holding up to 12 fibers each.
•Construction consists of: outer jacket, binder, subunit jacket, subunit aramid yarn, strength member, tight-buffered fibers, and a ripcord.

Why Buy From Black Box?
Exceptional Value. Exceptional
Tech Support. Period.
Recognize any of these situations?
•You wait more than 30 minutes to get through to a vendor’s tech support.
•The so-called “tech” can’t help you or gives you the wrong answer.
•You don’t have a purchase order number and the tech refuses to help you.
•It’s 9 p. m. and you need help, but your vendor’s tech support line is closed.
According to a survey by Data Communications magazine, 90% of network managers surveyed say that getting the technical support they need is extremely important when choosing a vendor. But even though network managers pay anywhere from 10 to 20% of their overall purchase price for a basic service and support contract, the technical support and service they receive falls far short of their expectations—and certainly isn’t worth what they paid.
At Black Box, we guarantee the best value and the
best support. You can even consult our Technical Support Experts before you buy if you need help selecting just the right component for your application.
Don’t waste time and money—call Black Box today.
