CMR/CMX Outdoor Sunlight Resistant Product Description
Superior Essex Category 5e ScTP (F/UTP) CMR/CMx Outdoor Sunlight Resistant Cable is designed for extreme sunlight and temperature applications that require shielding and a ground wire for Power-overEthernet (PoE) devices. The specially formulated black jacket is designed to resist both temperatures down to -20C (-4F) and up to +65C (+149F). The level of UV protectants prevents damage from long-term UV sunlight exposure. The combination of temperature and UV tolerance makes this cable ideal for installations requiring cable to be exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time, such as WiMAx applications. It is also suitable for retrofit cable applications requiring exterior runs with long term outdoor exposure between two environmentally protected points. This cable has been tested and listed as UL 444 Sunlight Resistant compliant. This designation requires the cable to resist 720 hours of harsh UV and heat, and is more than twice the exposure time of the standard 300 hours required in the CMx Outdoor test. In addition, the CMR listing allows the cable to be used in riser spaces per UL 1666, eliminating the need to transition to more fire resistant cables. The cable is sweep-tested to 350 MHz and meets all applicable ANSI/ TIA-568-C.2 requirements. It supports 1000BASE-T and surpasses the grade 2 requirements specified in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-570-B Residential Telecommunications Standard.

OSP Broadband Category 6A

BBDN6A and BBDG6A Product Description
Superior Essex BBDN6A and BBDg6A are Category 6A Outside Plant (OSP) Broadband cables. These cables are designed to provide an extension of the LAN beyond the premises or in situations where the NEC code requires an OSP-rated cable when it is in contact with earth whether in a conduit or not. The cable consists of four (4) balanced twisted pairs surrounded by Superior Essex PFM gel which, not only prevents water ingress and is easy to clean, but will not drip or flow, even in cell tower applications. The cable is sweep-tested out to 500 MHz and includes a cross-web for outstanding internal crosstalk performance. The jacketed core is covered with either an 8 mil aluminum tape shield or corrugated, copper-clad steel armor providing exceptional Alien Crosstalk performance as well as resistance to EMI/RFI. The cable employs DryBlock, a water-swellable material between the shield/armor and the inner jacket, that prevents water from traveling between the shield and the inner cable. The outside jacket is OSP-grade black polyethylene for superior sunlight and abrasion resistance.

Microarray Data Center Interconnect

The Microarray Data Center Interconnect Cable from Superior Essex is designed for high performance in a small package. Having a nominal outer diameter of only 3.0 mm, the microarray data center cable has twelve 250 micron fibers. The cable can then be fusion spliced, connectorized to a high density 12-fiber MTP/MPO mechanical array connector or attached to standard single ferrule mechanical connectors (LC, SC, ST, etc.) via a furcation kit. The loose fibers are surrounded by aramid yarns and a low smoke PVC (LSPVC) plenum or riser-rated jacket. Its small size allows for denser fiber routing than traditional tight buffered cables; its round shape and loose-tube construction give it superior performance and installation ease compared to ribbon interconnect cable.

Single Unit Distribution

These Superior Essex premises distribution optical fiber cables are constructed using a single unit single jacket RoHS-compliant design with fiber counts from 6 through 24. The design consists of flexible 900 m tight buffered industry standard 250 m fibers (900/250/125 m) and is suitable for use with standard connectors, like the SC, ST, and FC, and small-form-factor connectors like the LC. Dielectric aramid yarns are applied for strength while maintaining flexibility. The 18 and 24-fiber cable designs have a flexible glass reinforced central strength element for added durability and performance. A durable, flame resistant outer jacket is applied over the cable core using appropriate OFNR or OFNP rated materials.

with QuickCount Marking System
Product Description
Superior Essex offers premises fiber cable products packaged in a BrakeBox design, which includes the innovative QuickCount footage marking and a variable resistance system that virtually eliminates reel over-spin and tangling. The BrakeBox packaging is a true advantage for installers who are pulling fiber cable in multiple locations. It not only stacks and travels better, it also protects the fiber cable better than an open reel. The box features two resistance mechanisms on both sides of the reel, each of which has three resistance settings. The variable brakes control backtension preventing over-spin and tangling. The QuickCount feature provides footage marking on the cable jacket counting down from 1,000 feet.

The design consists of flexible 900 m tight buffered industry standard 250 m fibers (900/250/125 m) and is suitable for use with standard connectors, like the SC, ST, and FC, and small-form-factor connectors like the LC. Subunits are constructed using dielectric aramid yarns for strength while maintaining flexibility and are jacketed using the color appropriate to the type of fiber in the cable. The subunits are then reverse oscillating lay (ROL) stranded around a flexible high-strength glass reinforced rod which provides exceptional resistance to dimensional changes due to temperature. A durable, flame resistant outer jacket is applied over the cable core using appropriate OFNR or OFNP rated materials.

Compact and Rugged Indoor MDU

Both the Compact MDU 3 mm simplex cable and the Rugged Indoor MDU 5 mm simplex cable meet ICEA-730 Draft specification for MDU cables. The 3 mm is ideal for low-stress installations where space is a premium. The 5 mm is more robust and can handle installation tensions as high as 100 pounds. Both cables are available with g.657.A2 or g.657.B3 compliant bend resistant single mode fiber, preventing light loss even under tight bends.

Interlock Armored
Premises Fiber OFCR/OFCP Product Description
Interlock Armored Optical Fiber Cables provide for an extremely well protected cable package ideally suited for harsh environments. The armor is available in aluminum or steel and comes with either an OFCR (riser) or OFCP (plenum) rating. This design offers the system designer a product that can be installed in high traffic areas where added mechanical protection and security are required. The flexible interlock armored cable design is also popular for retrofit applications and eliminates the need to install rigid conduit while still meeting building code guidelines.

Product Description
Loose tube cables are the product of choice as the backbone in Outside Plant (OSP) applications. Loose tube self support cables are designed for use in aerial applications as an alternative to lashing. These cables reduce installation time and costs. Superior Essex offers self support cables for spans up to 700 feet. The loose tube design offers reliable transmission performance over a broad temperature range. Optical fibers are placed inside filled buffer tubes containing PFM gel. The core is constructed by stranding the buffer tubes around a central member using a reverse oscillating lay (ROL). The core is wrapped with flexible strength members covered with a water-blocking tape then encased with a black polyethylene inner jacket. Water-blocking yarns and a corrugated steel armor are applied and a black outer jacket with an integrated EHS steel messenger completes the cable construction. Rip cords are included under the armor and inner jacket for ease of entry.

Loose Tube Indoor/Outdoor

OFNR Series 13 Product Description
Loose tube riser cables are ideal for campus environments, private networks and local area networks. These dual purpose cables save money and installation time by allowing a direct transition from indoor to outdoor applications with a single cable. Because these cables are fully water blocked with dry elements, stripping and termination is faster. These cables comply with the standards for both Outside Plant (OSP) and indoor riser applications. The loose tube design offers reliable transmission performance over a broad temperature range. The rugged loose tube design features optical fibers placed inside PFM gel-filled buffer tubes. The core is constructed by stranding the buffer tubes around a central member using a reverse oscillating lay (ROL). It is wrapped with flexible strength members, covered with a heat resistant, waterblocking tape and then encased with a black, flame and sunlight resistant jacket. A rip cord is included under the jacket for ease of entry.

Series W7
Product Description
Series W7 FTTP is the first indoor/outdoor drop cable that is rugged enough for outdoor environments and flexible enough for tight bends within residences. The patent-pending design utilizes a fully functional 2.9 mm OFNR rated simplex tight buffer cable as the core of a gR-20 OSP rated FTTP small flat cable. The key benefit of this cable is that it can be installed from the pedestal to the indoor ONT (Optical Network Terminal) with no intermediate termination. Significant installation savings can be realized by avoiding splicing or termination on the outside or inside wall of the residence. Further savings are realized by using an indoor ONT that does not require an electrician to install. This completely dry, flat drop cable is available in universal and toneable designs that are suitable for aerial, direct bury or conduit installation. A water-blocking thread is used to prevent water penetration.

200A/800A Series (Canadian Color Code) Product Description

The 200A and 800A Series Central Office (CO) Cables are designed for indoor use in central offices or in premises telephone rooms, and are utilized between a distribution frame and digital switching/transmission equipment. This series offers 24 and 26 AWg tinned copper at 100 Ohm characteristic impedance levels. Used primarily in Canada, the color code and lay-up scheme has distinctively colored insulation in combination with single dots and double dots or dashes of colored ink. Each wire within a unit is readily distinguishable from all other wires within the same unit. Cables may contain pairs or a combination of pairs and singles. The pairs and singles are assembled together to form a core. Some cable sizes contain spare pairs. The core is covered by a gray PVC jacket. The 200A and 800A series meet or exceed all applicable requirements of Telcordia gR-137.

Product Description
Tight Twist Distribution Frame Wire is necessary for the deployment of both xDSL and HI-CAP (T-1/HDSL) circuits within the distribution frames of central offices. This higher capacity frame wire is manufactured with a tight twist to minimize the impacts of electromagnetic interferences within this indoor environment. The Tight Twist Distribution Frame Wire is available in both 22 and 24 gauge sizes with a heavy duty flame retardant PVC insulation. Heavy duty in this application means a higher level of abrasion resistance, higher cut through and a higher temperature rating. The 22 AWg product is intended for use on main distribution frames (conventional type), while the 24 AWg is intended for use on COSMIC (Modular) distributing frames. The product is available on spools.

IMRDWS
Product Description
IMRDWS is an aerial wire designed for use in extending communications service (voice, data, and/or video) to a subscriber premises from the distribution point. This product has additional capabilities over the standard IMRDW product because it contains a shielding screen. The conductors are wrapped within a metallic aluminum shield to insulate them from interference and thus provide high quality digital transmission. In addition, a drain wire runs longitudinally the length of the wire to drain off Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). Without shielding and a drain wire, noise can be introduced into circuits from high voltage AC power lines, machinery with motors, x-ray systems, TV sets and AM radio stations. Shielding also lessens the chance that DSL or other high frequency transmission protocols will interfere with other signals on adjacent cables.

Optical Fiber Types

Single mode fiber (SMF) is used primarily for intermediate and long distance Outside Plant (OSP) applications that have distances between connections of up to 80 km (50 mi). It is the exceptional information carrying capacity and lowloss properties of this fiber that make it ideal for these demanding applications. The core, or light-carrying region of the fiber, is approximately 8.3 m in diameter. This narrows the transmission pathway allowing for only a single path, or mode, for each pulse of light traveling down the core of the fiber. The light transmission technology is laser-based for all single mode communications applications. By combining the extremely high bandwidth properties of SMF with high precision laser-based transceivers, equipment and network systems designers can create networks capable of sending simultaneous voice and data transmission well beyond 10 gbps over many miles. Superior Essex offers many types of single mode optical fibers for communications applications. Based on the application, Superior Essex can recommend the following SMF types. Standard SMF offered by Superior Essex is an excellent choice for patch cords, local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN) and metropolitan area networks (MAN). This fiber has operating wavelengths centered at 1310 nm and 1550 nm. Refer to the table on page J-4 for performance information. Reduced Water Peak (RWP) SMF, which has been designed to have low attenuation at 1383 nm, is becoming the most commonly recommended optical fiber for all types of network applications. Standard optical fiber displays an attenuation increase at or about 1383 nm. This wavelength is known as the water-peak region and is where light is strongly absorbed by naturally occurring water-like end groups in the glass, causing high attenuation or signal loss. Specifically, hydroxyl end groups, which make up half of a water molecule, are always present at some level within the glass core and cause increased attenuation over this wavelength region. Superior Essex RWP SMF reduces this effect and allows all the wavelengths between 1300 nm and 1550 nm to be usable. This optical fiber is therefore, not only an excellent choice for traditional applications, but also for more advanced systems such as coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) and dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) technologies. RWP SMF is the standard single mode optical fiber for all Superior Essex premises cables. Refer to the table on page J-4 for performance information. Zero Water Peak SMF offers further reductions to the attenuation at 1383 nm. Attenuation improvement at 1383 nm is usually 0.03 to 0.04 dB per km. Refer to the table on page J-4 for performance information. Non-Zero Dispersion Shifted (NZDS) fiber is used for very high data rates over very long distances (> 30 km). Because of core/cladding modifications, this fiber is more expensive than standard SMF. The advantage of NZDS is that it allows for longer distances between repeaters and therefore lowers the overall system cost for long distance networks. Refer to the table on page J-4 for performance information. TeraFlex bend resistant optical fiber is a SMF that complies with ITU-T g.652.D and g.657.A. The bend sensitivity of this optical fiber has been improved so that it can be coiled into a 20 mm diameter loop with 0.5 dB incurred loss at 1625 nm and 0.2 dB incurred loss at 1550 nm five times better bending performance than leading RWP optical fibers. TeraFlex offers excellent Polarized Mode Dispersion (PMD) of 0.1 ps/km per individual fiber. TeraFlex is an ideal choice for FTTP applications where small enclosures are normal and space is at a premium.

Multimode fiber (MMF) is identified by the physical size of the core as measured in microns (m) and the applications for which it is typically used. MMF, the most common types having 62.5/125 m and 50/125 m core/cladding dimensions, are used for data communications links with the local area network (LAN). The term multimode refers to the way the light travels down the optical fiber. For each pulse of light launched into the optical fiber by light source (transceiver), the light signal energy travels within the optical fiber core along multiple paths, or modes. These modes travel at different speeds, resulting in the pulse of light spreading out. This effect limits the bandwidth and distances that can be supported by MMF. For this reason, MMF is used in short distance LAN applications usually less than 2 km (6,560 ft) between connections. Typical network applications include building-to-building and communications closet-to-closet backbones, intelligent highway systems and fiber-to-the-desk. MMF is the choice for these short distance applications cables because of the large core size, which allows for inexpensive connectivity, greater durability and the use of low-cost light sources. Typically, a light emitting diode (LED), operating at a nominal wavelength of 850 nm, is used as the light source for MMF cable applications. The use of LED-based transceivers, MMF cables and inexpensive MMF connector systems have provided network designers with a relatively low-cost, high-bandwidth technology for campus-like networks. Recent technology breakthroughs in optical fiber transceiver technology have led to a new light source that extends the distance and increases the signal carrying capacity of MMF. This next-generation light source uses a vertical cavity surface emitting laser, or VCSEL (pronounced vicsel). The use of VCSEL transceivers, when compared to traditional LEDbased transmission systems, allows for greater distances for traditional applications such as 100 Mbps and for higher bandwidth applications such as 1 gigabit Ethernet (1gbE) and 10 gigabit Ethernet (10gbE). The VCSEL source transmits light through the center region of the optical fiber core. This has created the requirement for laser-optimized MMF. One of the most popular emerging applications for VCSEL-based LAN application is 10gbE. By using laser-optimized optical fibers, network engineers can improve transmission performance over greater distances. Teragain optical fibers are available in 62.5/125 m and 50/125 m fiber types. These optical fibers have been designed to provide greater data rate and distance support compared to other manufacturers optical fiber cables. In particular, the bandwidths of Teragain optical fibers are greater than the standard MMF offered by other manufacturers and exceed the requirements specified in TIA 568. Teragain optical fibers can be used with either LED or laser (VCSEL) transmission equipment. Refer to the table on page J-5 for specific performance information. Teragain 10g 50/125 multimode fibers are specifically optimized for 850 nm lasers (or VCSELs) that are the heart of the new 10gbE systems specified in TIA 568. These optical fibers exceed industry specifications for both bandwidth and for differential modal dispersion. Teragain 10g optical fibers support 10gbE applications in three ranges: 150, 300 and 550 meters. These ranges allow engineers to cost effectively design the right optical fiber for their application requirements. Superior Essex offers Teragain 10g/150 as its standard 50 m MMF in all its premises optical fiber cables. Refer to the table on page J-5 for specific performance information. Like the Teragain 10g 50/125 multimode fibers, TeraFlex 10g multimode fibers are specifically optimized for 850 nm lasers (or VCSELs) but with the added benefit of Macrobend Resistance. These optical fibers exceed industry specifications for not only bandwidth and differential modal dispersion, but for minimum bend radii allowing use where tight bend radii are encountered. This is especially important for applications, like 40gbE and 100gbE, where channel margins are tight. TeraFlex 10g optical fibers support 10gbE applications in three ranges: 150 (OM2+), 300 (OM3) and 550 (OM4) meters. Refer to the table on page J-5 for specific performance information.

Pair Identification Colors
For pairs numbering 1 through 25, the pair identification colors are outlined below. In cable constructions containing more than 25-pair, the colors are repeated as necessary. Color coded binders are used to identify 25-pair groups of color coded pairs. Pair Number

Groups of Pairs Binder Identification Colors

For cables through 600-pair, 25-pair groups are identified by their binder colors in the same sequence as the pair identification is accomplished. group 1 has White-Blue binders, group 2 has White-Orange binders, etc. In this manner, each pair is uniquely identified. In cables having 25-pair or less, binders are normally not used. However, if specified, the binders will be group 1, White-Blue. For cables of 100-pair or less, the use of the White binder is optional. Group Number

NEC Fire Resistance Ratings
Article 800 of the National Electrical Code (NEC), also known as NFPA 70, covers requirements for low-voltage communications cables. The NEC requires that cables used in premises, both commercial and residential, be listed for the purpose by a Nationally Recognized Test Laboratory (NRTL, pronounced nurtle). Other countries have similar requirements. UL (Underwriters Laboratories Inc.) is the most recognized listing agency in the US. UL 444 is the overall specification used to identify the requirements for listed communications cables. Many of the fire resistance test procedures called out in UL 444 are written by UL. However, other laboratories, such as ITS (Intertek Testing Services) and CSA (Canadian Standards Association), can also provide listing compliance to the NEC. Five levels of fire resistance are specified. These are outlined below, from most stringent to least. The ratings are hierarchical, i.e., from a fire resistance standpoint, a higher rating can be substituted for any lower rating, but not vice versa. NEC Designation CSA Equivalent
Common Term
Test
Comments
Cable must have resistance to flame spread and reduced smoke generating properties Cable is approved for placement in air handling ducts and chambers (plenums) without the use of fireproof conduit Purpose of the rating is to lessen the transmission of fire and visible smoke to unaffected parts of the building Toxic or corrosive elements of the smoke are not measured Equivalent to Canadian FT6 rating Cable must not transmit flame from one floor to another when placed vertically in a building shaft (riser) Equivalent to Canadian FT4 rating Cable may not transmit flame for more than 4 feet, 11 inches Cable shall not penetrate floors or ceilings (i.e. cable may only be used within a single floor) Designation was added as a part of the harmonization efforts between U.S. and Canadian standards Cable may not transmit flame for more than 4 feet, 11 inches Cable shall not penetrate floors or ceilings (i.e. cable may only be used within a single floor) Cable meets the least stringent flame spread requirements of all ratings For residential use, but can only be installed in one and two-family (duplex) housing units Often rated with optional UL requirements for outdoor use*

*These outdoor requirements are limited to some cold temperature properties and UV resistance. They do not qualify a cable to be substituted for an Outside Plant (OSP) cable. For example, they have no protection against the intrusion of water, which can destroy a cables transmission properties and physically degrade a cable as well. The purpose of the outdoor rating is to ensure the cable can withstand outdoor exposure in the short run between the Network Interface Unit and the point of entry into the interior of the home.
Balanced Twisted Pair Transmission Categories

In response to growing demand for data applications, premises cable performance has evolved such that several categories of transmission performance for balanced twisted pair cables have been developed. These categories are detailed below. The categories are hierarchical, i.e., a higher category can be substituted for any lower category, but not vice versa. Maximum Bandwidth

Comments
Designed for reduced alien crosstalk Doubles the bandwidth of CAT 5e and vastly improves signal-to-noise margins Characterized by tightly twisted pairs to reduce crosstalk loss Proposed FCC minimum category requirement effective 2020 No longer recognized as an appropriate medium for commercial networking installations (replaced by CAT 5e or higher) Minimum allowed by the FCC for horizontal cable in commercial and residential voice and data applications Market trend is to abandon CAT 3 in favor of installing CAT 5e or higher for both data and voice

Descriptions
BrakeBox Dual Brake System Steel Reel

Long lengths of cable are placed onto Steel Reels. An advantage of this reel is that it is environmentally-friendly and recycled for years of service. This package is dual purpose. In this design the cable is placed onto a plastic spool, which is placed into a box. The brake allows for back-tension and over-spin control. The spool may be taken from the box for installation or may be left in the box where the cable pays out through a slotted opening.
Wood/Plywood Reel
Reels may be made of plywood or wood. Superior Essex wooden reels can be recycled an average of five times before retirement (see Web site for further details).
POP Box
In this package, the cable is coiled into a box. The product pays out through a tube opening in the box. This design does not allow for the cable to be removed as a unit from the box.
Spool
Wire is wound onto a spool. The spool is placed inside a box for protection during shipment. Spools are smaller than wood or steel reels.
Reel-in-a-Box
This package is dual purpose. In this design the cable is placed onto a plastic spool, which is placed into a box. The spool may be taken from the box for installation or may be left in the box where the cable pays out through a slotted opening.
Parallel Cone
This package is designed to fit into the general Machine Products (gMP) cast aluminum wire dispensing system (gMP units 80470 or 80471). When placed onto the gMP dispenser, the jumper or distribution frame wire pays out smoothly. gMP dispensers are most common in central offices.
Knock-out Box
Cable is coiled and fastened within a box. Knock out boxes can be identified by a perforated knockout that is removed, allowing access to the cable.
Coils
Coils refer to lengths of cable wrapped into a shape (usually a circle) and fastened with multiple ties. Multiple coils may be placed inside a box for shipping or shipped on a pallet, and then secured by stretchwrap. Coils are always fastened with ties. Coils can be custom configured to fit a customers unique cable and wire feeding systems.

A Total Approach to Campus-Wide Cabling

Todays communications networks encompass more than the inside building data cabling system. In a campus setting, the network extends outside between the buildings and through the telco rooms. Often the voice network is separate from the data, yet it is designed and installed simultaneously with all other network cabling. Under the Superior Essex Campus Warranty Program, virtually all of the telecommunications cabling needs of a campus project can be met with the comprehensive coverage of a single warranty solution.
Qualifying is Easy
1. Install premises cables, 100% of which must be manufactured by Superior Essex 2. Install either/both Superior Essex OSP or Voice Data cables 3. Obtain a premises warranty from Superior Essex or the approved connectivity company (see the PerformaLink Warranty for approved companies) 4. Submit a Campus Warranty application as well as proof of the obtained premises warranty
What You Get

The Superior Essex Campus Warranty assures that products within the cabling system will be free from defects in material or workmanship, and will meet all published performance specifications for the applicable term.
How it Works
The Campus Warranty provides true assurance from a single source. It covers all the Superior Essex fiber and copper cables used throughout a campus, plus connectivity hardware. Obtaining a Campus Warranty that covers the inside building structured cabling, premises voice, telco room cabling and/or Outside Plant (OSP) cable from Superior Essex is simple: 1. Install your structured cabling system using copper and/or fiber data cable from Superior Essex for 100% of the installation in combination with a connectivity manufacturer that is included in either the PerformaLink* or NextLAN* warranties. (Premises cable must account for a minimum of 25% of the total cable purchase value to qualify for the Campus Warranty.) 2a. When using Superior Essex premises cable and Leviton connectivity, certify your structured cabling installation in accordance with the NextLAN Warranty requirements and your NextLAN Warranty will be provided. Then, submit the completed Campus Warranty registration form with supporting documentation to Superior Essex and your extended Campus Warranty on voice-grade premises and OSP cable products will be provided. 2b. When using Superior Essex cable in combination with an approved connectivity manufacturer listed in the PerformaLink Warranty (other than Leviton), you can obtain your structured cabling warranty from Superior Essex or the connectivity manufacturer. Once the structured cabling warranty is obtained, submit both the complete Campus Warranty registration form and required documentation to Superior Essex. Your Campus Warranty on voice grade premises and OSP cable products will then be provided.
