Manchester, NH June 27, 2010 - Hitachi Cable Manchester (HCM) launches revolutionary Category 6 cable design.
Hitachi Cable Manchester is pleased to introduce a completely gel-free outside plant fiber optic cable. The Mojave™ line of fiber optic cables, available with 12 to 432 strands of optical fiber, consists of 250 micron optical fibers (Corning™ glass is standard) housed within buffer tubes that utilize aramid yarns impregnated with Super Absorbent Polymers (SAP) for water blocking. Outside the buffer tubes, additional SAP impregnated yarns are used to further prohibit water migration within the cable. The cable core is protected by a robust polyolefin outer jacket that is moisture and fungus resistant. Optical fiber options include all multimode and singlemode glass types. MojaveTM cables are also available with corrugated armor and all Mojave™ cable constructions are compatible with all connectors intended for loose tube 250 micron glass. Mojave™ cables are available through HCM’s network of authorized distributors.
