Corning 006E88-31131-D3 – Interlocking Dielectric Cable, Tight-Buffered, OS2, 6 Fiber

Corning 006E88-31131-D3 – Interlocking Dielectric Cable, Tight-Buffered, OS2, 6 Fiber

This 6-fiber OS2 single-mode interlocking dielectric cable is built for high-performance indoor networking in environments that demand both durability and safety. Its tight-buffered construction, yellow flame-retardant plenum-rated (OFNP) jacket, and interlocking dielectric armor offer superior protection without metallic components. Designed for general purpose, horizontal, and plenum applications, it maintains consistent performance even in challenging conditions. The cable supports low-loss transmission with a maximum attenuation of 0.4 dB/km across 1310, 1383, and 1550 nm wavelengths, meeting ITU-T G.652.D standards. With a compact 10.2 mm outer diameter, it balances strength, flexibility, and ease of installation.
