Ruggedized Armoured Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Ruggedized Armoured Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Norden armoured patch cord provides flexible interconnection to active equipment, passive optical devices and cross connects. These patch cords are manufactured so as to withstand side pressure and repeated bending and are used in external applications in customer premises, central offices and in harsh environment. Armoured patch cords are constructed with a stainless steel tube over a standard patch cord with an outer jacket. The flexible metal tube limits the bending radius, reventing the optical fibre from breaking. This ensures a safe and durable optical fibre network system.
