Features & Benefits
- Improve Crosstalk Performance: Central spline separates pairs and maintains stable pair position
- Optimized Cable Balance: Improved balance of transmission performance for simultaneous parallel transmission protocols
- Performance Reliability: Guarantees across all parameters, including insertion loss and crosstalk, for excellent uptime, headroom and network speeds
- Withstand Installation Rigors: Bonded-Pair Cables handle higher pulling tensions and tighter bend radii
- Easy, Mess-free Outdoor Installations: Dry Core Outside Plant and Indoor/Outdoor Plenum cables contain no inconvenient water-blocking gels, tapes, or powders
