6 Fiber Optic Cable UCTS DMICROCORE OSP CABLE & MICRO OSP MicroCore Telcordia GR-20 Micro-Technology Air-Blown OSP Loose Tube AFL OSP MicroCore cable series is designed for outside plant installation in microduct conduit systems. The unique, high-fiber density geometry yields a cable construction that can safely accommodate 12 up to 432 fibers and can be blown into microducts ranging in inside diameters from 10 mm to 16 mm. For example, with a 7-way 12.7 mm x 10 mm (conduit with seven microducts) in place, the system designer has the flexibility to install from 12 to 144 fibers per microduct. With this approach, only the number of fibers required for initial networking requirements need to be installed. Then as future network upgrades and expansions are required, the spare microducts can be jetted with addition OSP MicroCore cables without having to add additional pathway space and the associated installation labor cost. Applications Designed for long -haul and middle-mile Campus inter-building backbone distribution Low-cost fiber upgrade migration strategies Features GR-20 compliant water-blocked cable core and buffer tubes Colored binder threads for easily identifiable optical fiber bundles 300-lb load rating Aramid-strengthened cable core OD compatible with 10 mm to 16 mm inside diameter microducts 12 up to 432 fibers Mechanical Data NOMINAL MIN.

8 FIBER OPTIC CABLE Fiber Optic Cable IEC MicroCore Fiber Optic Cable AFL MicroCore is an advanced Blown Fiber Optic Cable system for underground duct cables. The MicroCore product line is a complete solution with designs suitable for many applications and needs from backbone networks to FTTx. Whether the need is for high Fiber density or small cable diameter, the MicroCore range has the solution. Designs are always based on minimal cable and duct diameters for cost effective installation and materials. MicroCore cables are jetted through a network of microducts using compressed air. Conduit systems can be laid and microducts and cable can be blown in as and when required, giving installers the flexibility of deploying fiber only when needed and reducing initial investment costs. Making provisions for future installations also means that only the very latest fiber optic technology is used and therefore scaled to changing market demands. d Conventional duct 288 Fiber 53.6% Fill The MicroCore system can be used for overriding existing networks and conduits, which reduces network disruption and expensive excavation costs and permits during installation. MicroCore cable is lightweight and flexible made with a specially designed low friction jacket to enable greater jetting lengths to reduce time and cost. Subduct 360 Fiber 52.9% fill Features Scalable deployment Rapid cost effective installation Fiber counts up to 144 Range of cable designs and sizes to suit a variety of duct size No EMI or earth bonding limitations Fiber arranged in buffer tubes some designs suitable for 12-Fiber management Suitable for microducts supplied by all manufacturers Installation speeds of up to 120 m/min. and over 2.5 km lengths at a time Robust for handling in the field High level bend capacity Low friction jacket design Easy access and breakout of Fibers Cable Components Multi-tube Design (4-8 tubes) low friction outer jacket optical fibers in buffer tube strength element rip cord , AFL, all rights reserved.

14 FIBER OPTIC CABLE Fiber Optic Cable NEW SWR Technology Sub-unitized Premise MicroCore with Spider Web Ribbon Technology The third generation of our Sub-Unitized Premise MicroCore cables is another astounding evolution of high performance premise cabling. Enabling even greater pathway density than our 2.0 version, the 3.0 revolutionizes cable deployment and allows the end user to realize savings in space, routing infrastructures and fiber management. Combining the highest quality materials with rigorous testing to industry standards, this generation builds on the same quality of construction as the previous versions of our Sub-Unitized Premise MicroCore cables. Also similar to previous version is the employment of stand-alone sub cables. Each sub-cable is independently qualified and is suitable for individual routing paths within the rack/panel architecture. This flexibility of design and deployment is not available in comparable high density designs. Designed for direct termination, and supportive of both single-fiber and multi-fiber architectures, this cable family is capable of serving as the backbone in any deployed system. SWR is a bonded fiber design allowing for either a highly efficient ribbonizing application or for individual fiber break-outs. This flexibility allows for the application of a single cable design to cover a diverse set of applications. High density round designs allow for the most efficient use of space and materials, resulting in a cost effective solution.

20 FIBER OPTIC CABLE Fiber Optic Cable NEW eabf SWR eabf SWR Enterprise Air-Jetted Fiber Cable The AFL eabf SWR (Spider Web Ribbon) is a new innovation that combines the best of ribbon fiber mass-fusion functionality and single fiber-bundle packing density to enterprise fiber optic structured cabling materials. The SWR fiber bundle used in this version of the eabf air-jetted fiber optic cable allows for the design of round, high-fiber density geometry yet offers the installer the ability to quickly and efficiently install MPO multi-fiber connectors or mass-fusion splicing without having to sort out and arrange individual fibers. In addition, because of SWR fiber binding system, the individual optical fibers can be easily separated and terminated as single fiber units. The eabf SWR cable meets the interconnect standards of Telcordia GR-409 and is rated to meet NFPA/NEC flame-safety requirements as a stand-alone cable yet can be jetted thousands of feet in the eabf 8.5/6 mm Dura-Line FuturePath MicroDuct pathway system. Features 24, 48 and 72 fiber options increase design flexibility without increasing space or installation time (labor costs) requirements NFPA/NEC Riser and Plenum options for use in riser or plenum pathway environments (outside of micro-duct) Innovative fiber-ribbon bonding allows for higher density cable than traditional flat, fiber-ribbon Spider Web Ribbon technology reduces cable diameter to improve pathway space and cooling channel efficiencies Telcordia GR-409 Interconnectcompliant means cable can be routed within cable management pathways (outside of micro-duct) TIA and IEC/ISO OM3, OM4 and single-mode optical fiber options which support easy migration to IEEE 802.3ba 40GbE and 100GbE applications Optimized for high-density terminations for excellent integration with MPObased and mass-fusion spliced connectivity solutions Compliant to Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS) environment-safe materials reduces concern for handling of cables Cables can be de-installed and reused to meet LEED-design guidelines for green building initiatives SWR Technology Cable Components aramid yarn coated fiber outer jacket 24 Fiber eabf SWR 48 Fiber eabf SWR , AFL, all rights reserved.

25 Fiber Optic Cable OPTICAL PATCH & SPLICE ENCLOSURES XFM-HD 1RU front view XFM-HD 2RU front view with trays pulled out Xpress Fiber Management High Density Products (XFM -HD) The XFM-HD family of products is designed to offer intuitive fiber management and unmatched fiber port accessibility in both the front and rear of the panel to extreme density applications in an optical interconnect environment. Readily supporting the management of densities up to 576 fibers in a traditional 4 rack-unit (4RU) space, the XFM-HD solution easily matches the highest port densities available in the market. The completely modular solution features low-loss MPO style trunk cable assemblies, Optical Fan-out cassettes with integrated fiber management and Uniboot 2.0 mm LC jumper assemblies. This combination of products cohesively equates to efficient moves, adds and changes and more accurate cost budgeting as there are no other products or accessories required to complete or modify an installation. A unique Uniboot LC connector allows for reversal of polarity in the field without requiring the use of any tools, easing assimilation into existing installations. Microcore trunk cables offer operators a reduced cable diameter which eases congestion in busy raceways, and feature an innovative protective pulling eye solution designed to add efficiency and security to moving the trunks through densely-packed ducts and conduits.
