Mini C2 Cable ™

A Furukawa Company

Compact and Durable Cable Can Help Minimize


Deployment Costs for Your Last Optical Link

Product Description

T he Mini C2™ Cable is size-optimized for a maxi-


mum of 12 fibers to help minimize deployment
costs. This small and lightweight, yet highly durable
cable offers easy installation and handling while provid-
Mini C2 Cable
ing additional protection in the demanding outside plant
(OSP) environment.
To construct the Mini C2 Cable, one to twelve optical
fibers are placed within a 3 mm gel-filled central tube.
An overlapping layer of electrolytically chrome-
coated, corrugated steel (ECCS) armor then
envelopes the central tube. Two steel strength Polyethylene (PE) Jacket
rods are next placed lengthwise along the armor,
diametrically positioned to each other, to provide extra Corrugated Steel Armor
compressive strength. Finally, a durable polyethylene
Steel Strength Rods (2)
(PE) jacket is added to help provide protection in the
rigorous OSP environment.
