The cable type is longitudinally water-blocked and intended for combined indoor as well as outdoor use (in ducts). The design can incorporate 12 to 192 fibres in loose tubes. The individually coloured fibres are tubed in groups of 12, and stranded onto a central dielectric fibre reinforced strength member (FRP). The cable type is longitudinal water-blocked through the use of water-swellable materials and sheathed with halogen-free flame-retardant polymeric compound. The cable type fulfils the fire propagation requirements stated in IEC 60332-1.
