Military Tactical Cables B-Series Breakout Cables
  

  
Features & Benefits
Extremely strong, lightweight, rugged, survivable tight-buffer cables designed for military tactical field use and commercial applications.
Breakout cable design with an individual color-coded subcable surrounding each optical fiber.
Crush-resistant and resilient, with two separate layers of aramid strength members - in the subcables for individual single-fiber connector termination, and overall for termination to multiway connector backshells or other housings.
Helically stranded cable core for flexibility, survival in difficult pulls, and superior mechanical protection for the optical fibers.
Cables have been tested and are in use in military data communications applications worldwide.
Excellent for use in deployment/retrieval applications such as video coverage of news events or oil exploration.
Can be used outdoors on the ground in all terrain including severe environments.
Suitable for manufacturing, mining and petrochemical environments and chemical resistance.
Round cable design for easy installation and survivability.
Polyurethane jacketed for abrasion, cut and chemical resistance.
Often used with multiway military tactical connectors, for maximum connector retention (400 lbs)
Ideally suited for use with MIL-C-38999 style military connectors - subcables terminate to individual "pins" and overall aramid strength member terminates to backshell.
2 to 24 fibers, higher fiber counts are available on request.
