Fischer FiberOptic Series – Cable Specifications

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The Fischer FiberOptic Series offers high-quality optical links designed for harsh environments, featuring easy mating, field cleaning, and high ingress protection ratings (IP68 when mated, IP67 unmated). The series includes rugged connectors available in pre-cabled versions for enhanced performance and efficiency.
Product Versions
  • FiberOptic FO1, FO2 & FO4: Connectors with one, two, or four fibers.
  • FiberOptic Hybrid FOH: Hybrid connectors with two fiber channels and two electrical contacts.
Cable Availability
The series offers various cable options for indoor and outdoor use, including OCC, LEONI, and KAIPHONE cables, with different fiber counts and specifications.
Outdoor Cable Features
Outdoor cables are designed for high-load applications, featuring tight buffered fibers, aramid yarn, and PUR jackets. They offer high tensile load resistance, crush resistance, and operate in temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.
Specific Cable Specifications
  • OCC 1 Channel - 900µm: Features tight buffered optical fiber with a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and flame retardancy UL 94 V-0.
  • OCC 1 Channel - 2.0mm: Suitable for indoor use with LSZH cables, offering high performance and environmental protection.
Key Performance Metrics
  • Maximum cabled attenuation: 0.5 dB/km for single mode, 3.0 dB/km for multimode.
  • Operating tensile load: Up to 300 N.
  • Minimum bend radius: 1 cm for 900µm cables, 2.5 cm for 2.0mm cables.

Applications and Features
Suitable for indoor use, harsh environments, and broadcast field use. Compatible with standard fiber optic connectors. Designed for flexibility, mechanical protection, and chemical resistance. Available with various outer jacket materials for specific environmental needs.
Specifications
The document outlines the specifications for various fiber optic cables, focusing on their resistance to harsh industrial environments, including chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, and crush resistance. It specifies that these cables are not suitable for direct underground laying.
Transmission Characteristics
Transmission characteristics are detailed in a separate fiber data sheet, indicating the need for additional documentation for complete information.
Mechanical Characteristics
The minimum bending radius for fixed installations is 10 times the outer diameter, while during assembly, it is 15 times the outer diameter. The maximum tensile force is specified as 2000 N long-term and 2500 N short-term, with crush resistance up to 8000 N/dm short-term.
Thermal Characteristics
The cables can withstand temperatures from -55°C to +85°C during transport and storage, and from -20°C to +60°C during installation.
Fire Performance
The cables are flame-retardant according to IEC 60332-1-2 and are halogen-free as per IEC 60754-1.
Chemical Characteristics
The cables exhibit very good resistance to oil, petrol, acids, and leach, and the outer jacket is UV-resistant.
Standardisation
The cables comply with IEC 60794-2 standards.
Additional Information
The document includes details on specific cable types, such as the LEONI Singlemode G.657.A1, which is designed for LAN, FTTX, and long-distance applications, offering optimized bending properties and low attenuation. The Brugg Metal Armored cables are noted for their high tensile strength, crush resistance, and rodent protection, suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
