Armored fiber cable serves as a member of the patch cable family, thus it retains all the features of standard patch cables. However, compared with those common patch cables, Armored fiber cables are much stronger and tougher. For example, once stepped by an adult, standard patch cables may get damaged easily and fail to work normally. But things are totally different from armored patch cables which can withstand the strength and perform well. Besides, armored patch cables are rodent-resistant, which means as long as armored patch cables are employed in applications or systems, you don’t need to worry about rats biting the cables any longer.

The Types of fiber optic armored cable

There exist two types of fiber optic armored cable, namely, indoor armored fiber patch cable and outdoor Armored fiber cable.

Armored fiber cable used for indoor applications often consists of tight-buffered or loose-buffered optical fibers, strengths members and an inner jacket. The inner jacket is commonly surrounded by a spirally-wrapped interlocking metal tap armor.

Outdoor fiber optic armored cable is made to ensure the operation safety of the fiber in the complicated outdoor environment. Most Outdoor Armored fiber cables are loose buffer design, with the strength member in the middle of the whole cable, loose tubes surround the central strength member.
