Its steel wire armoured (SWA) construction provides protection against impact, crushing and rodent damage, making it suitable for direct outdoor deployment and exposed routes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cable features a jelly-filled loose tube containing between 2 and 24 fibres, protected by water-blocked E-glass strength members. A UV-stabilised, halogen-free inner sheath is reinforced with 0.9mm zinc-coated steel wire armour before being covered by a second UV-stabilised halogen-free outer sheath. This construction helps prevent water ingress while maintaining durability in demanding environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for LAN and WAN backbones, telecom access networks, fibre-to-the-business (FTTB) and fibre-to-the-building connections, the cable can be installed in ducts, cable trays and external infrastructure routes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cable is manufactured in accordance with ISO 11801, EN 50173-1 and IEC 60794-1 standards, ensuring compatibility with standard OM3 multimode fibre connectivity and network hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"height: 450.852px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6023px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.6023px;
