May 17, 2001 Pirelli Cables and Systems North America (www.pirelli.com) has announced that its FlexLink Loose Tube Cable is now available with up to 312 optical fibers. Available in unarmored and single-armor/double-jacket designs, FlexLink loose-tube cables are composed of 26 buffer tubes in a dual-layer design, with 12 fibers per tube. An interior strength member makes the loose-tube cable rugged, while tight packing density results in small outer cable diameters of 0.87" for the unarmored and 1.02" for the armored cable.
