Description

The 200 meter (656 ft) ST to ST outdoor armored fiber optic cable is engineered for high-capacity fiber network installations that require long-distance connectivity, reinforced mechanical protection, and dependable optical transmission. Featuring 12 strands of 9/125μm OS2 single mode fiber, this pre-terminated cable provides six duplex fiber pairs within one rugged armored assembly.

Designed for large commercial properties, industrial facilities, telecommunications networks, and outdoor infrastructure projects, this cable combines extended reach with increased fiber capacity. Its construction makes it an effective solution for establishing reliable connections between network equipment located across substantial distances.

A built-in stainless steel armor layer helps protect the optical fibers against crushing, rodents, accidental impacts, and mechanical stress. This protective design provides additional durability compared with conventional unarmored fiber optic cables, particularly in industrial environments where cable pathways may be exposed to physical hazards.

Extended 200-Meter Connectivity for Large Network Installations

With a 200-meter (656 ft) continuous cable length, this armored fiber assembly is well suited for connecting buildings across expansive properties, linking remote telecommunications cabinets, extending industrial Ethernet networks, and supporting outdoor surveillance infrastructure.

Common installations include manufacturing facilities, warehouse complexes, utility yards, agricultural buildings, campus networks, and commercial properties with equipment distributed across multiple locations.

At this distance, routing fiber through long conduit pathways or between separate structures can make intermediate connections inconvenient. This assembly provides one continuous cable run, avoiding the need to join multiple shorter fiber optic cables along the route.

Each cable arrives factory-terminated and tested with ST UPC connectors on both ends, eliminating field connector polishing, fiber termination, and intermediate splicing.

This ready-to-install configuration helps simplify deployment and reduce the labor associated with establishing long-distance fiber optic connections.

Twelve Fibers for Multiple Links and Network Redundancy

The 12 strand configuration provides six independent duplex fiber pairs inside one protective armored cable.

Network administrators can use multiple fiber pairs for active connections between compatible network switches, telecommunications devices, industrial controllers, or remote distribution equipment.

Unused pairs may be reserved for backup connectivity, additional network systems, or future infrastructure upgrades.

Alternatively, all six duplex pairs can support separate optical connections along the same cable route, providing flexibility for expanding network environments.

For a 200-meter installation, this additional fiber capacity is particularly useful. Adding more cables after the initial deployment may require reopening lengthy conduit systems, accessing difficult installation locations, or disrupting existing network operations.

Installing twelve fibers from the beginning can help reduce future cable installation requirements while supporting long-term network expansion.

Industrial-Grade Armored Protection and Reliable OS2 Performance

Built with 9/125μm OS2 single mode optical fiber, this cable supports high-bandwidth data transmission with low optical attenuation for enterprise networking, industrial Ethernet, telecommunications, and fiber backbone applications.

Its factory-installed ST UPC connectors provide specified insertion loss of ≤0.3dB and return loss of ≥50dB, helping maintain dependable optical connectivity between compatible networking equipment.

The stainless steel armor layer offers additional resistance to physical damage, while the PVC jacket helps protect the cable during installation and operation.

The specified 40mm bend radius and 100–132 lbs tensile load support routing through suitable cable pathways and protected conduit systems. An operating temperature range of -40°C to 75°C further supports deployment in demanding indoor and appropriately rated outdoor environments.

Whether connecting remote facilities, expanding industrial communication networks, or supporting multiple surveillance and telecommunications systems, this 200M ST to ST 12 Strand OS2 Armored Fiber Optic Cable delivers extended reach, increased fiber capacity, and reinforced mechanical protection in one convenient assembly.
