DIGITUS A/I-DQ(ZN)BH OS2 9/125µ 12-Fiber Indoor/Outdoor Installation Cable, CPR Dca, LSZH, 1 m

The DIGITUS A/I-DQ(ZN)BH OS2 9/125+03BC 12-Fiber Indoor/Outdoor Installation Cable is a high-performance optical solution designed for reliable data transmission in diverse networking environments. This cable features a single-mode OS2 9/125+03BC fiber construction housed within a central loose tube, combining high tensile strength with flexibility in a compact profile. Engineered for seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor deployments, it provides exceptional durability against environmental factors while maintaining high signal integrity over long distances.

Advantages

This installation cable incorporates advanced protective features to ensure long-term reliability in demanding conditions. It includes glass yarn armoring and non-metallic rodent protection, safeguarding the internal fibers from physical damage and pests without introducing metal components. The outer jacket is made of Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) material compliant with CPR Dca fire safety ratings, ensuring minimized smoke emission in case of fire. Additionally, the cable is longitudinally and laterally water-resistant and UV-resistant, making it well-suited for exposed outdoor pathways and conduits.

Suitable for

• High-speed telecommunications and backbone network connections
• Structured cabling systems requiring indoor and outdoor routing
• Campus networks and inter-building data transmission links
• Industrial or enterprise environments prone to rodent activity and moisture

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for high-flexibility applications where the line is subjected to continuous dynamic movement or frequent bending cycles, such as robotic arms. Additionally, projects that require multi-mode fiber infrastructure for legacy short-distance equipment will not benefit from this single-mode OS2 specification.

Key specifications

• OS2 9/125+03BC single-mode fiber optic type
• 12 fibers in a central loose tube
• LSZH outer sheath material with CPR Dca rating
• Glass yarn armored with non-metallic rodent protection
• Longitudinally and laterally water-resistant and UV-resistant
• Cable outer diameter of 6.5 mm
• Maximum allowable pulling force of 1400 N
• Crush resistance of 1000/200 N/100mm
• Operating temperature range from -40°C to +70°C

How to use

Installation should be performed by qualified technicians following standard optical fiber handling procedures. Ensure that the pulling force does not exceed the maximum allowable threshold of 1400 N during installation, and strictly adhere to the minimum bending radius specifications of 20 times the outer diameter during installation and 10 times during operation. Route the cable through appropriate conduits, cable trays, or direct burial pathways depending on local deployment requirements, and terminate the 12 fibers using compatible connectors and fusion splicing equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network hardware requires single-mode OS2 9/125+03BC fiber optic cables
• Calculate the required length to ensure sufficient coverage for your deployment route
• Confirm local building regulations regarding CPR Dca and LSZH fire safety compliance
• Check that termination and splicing tools for 12-fiber loose tube configurations are available

Make sure to plan the routing path in advance to avoid exceeding the minimum bending radius and pull tension limits, thereby preserving optimal signal transmission performance over the lifespan of the installation.
