GEC NEWS WIREThe new cable uses a new type of glass yarn that combines rodent protection with installer friendliness and avoids skin-irritation
Nexans has launched its new LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal Cable, which harmonizes its Tight Buffer Indoor and Universal cable portfolio with an installer-friendly and more cost effective Tight Buffer Universal cable for indoor and outdoor use.
“The LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal cable is a fibre cable that can be used indoor and outdoor in a duct. It complies with the indoor fire requirements and can be installed indoor both vertically and horizontally. It can also be used for outdoor installation in a duct as the water tight glass yarns make the cables fully waterproof and rodent retardant,” says Mr. Tarek Helmy, Regional Director Gulf and Middle East, South & East Africa of Nexans Cabling Solutions.
“Our existing Tight Buffer cables portfolio have glass yarns for rodent protection and water tightness but unfortunately these glass yarns could cause skin-irritating during installation. Hence for our latest LANmark-OF Tight Buffer Universal cables, we have developed a new type of glass yarn that combines rodent protection with installer friendliness and avoids skin-irritation. With these features the glass yarns can better be used indoors,” Mr. Helmy adds.
