I-V(BN)H

Description

The I-V(BN)H Indoor Tight Buffer Cable is designed for indoor fiber optic installations requiring high flexibility, flame retardancy and reliable mechanical performance. Built with a tight-buffered fiber structure, aramid yarn reinforcement and a halogen-free LSZH jacket, this cable ensures safe and stable operation in office buildings, residential complexes, commercial facilities and industrial indoor environments.

Its compact and flexible design supports rapid installation in riser shafts, trays, ducts and cabinets, while offering excellent durability for patching, pigtails and short interconnects.

Performance Characteristics

The I-V(BN)H design focuses on ease of handling, safety and stable optical transmission in indoor atmospheres. Key performance features include:

1. Tight-buffered optical fibers for easy termination and connectorization

2. Strength members providing tensile reinforcement and mechanical stability

3. LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer jacket with excellent flame-retardant properties

4. High bend performance when equipped with G.657.A1/A2 fibers — ideal for tight indoor routing

5. Very smooth stripping and quick field termination, compatible with standard indoor connectors

6. No gel components, ensuring clean handling and zero mess during installation

7. Low-smoke, non-toxic behavior in case of fire, suitable for high-occupancy areas

Its mechanical and fire-safety qualities make it suitable for both backbone segments within buildings and short patch applications.

Application Scenarios

I-V(BN)H Indoor Tight Buffer Cables are used across a wide range of indoor network environments, including:

1. Vertical risers and horizontal distribution in multi-floor buildings

2. Telecommunication room to patch panel interconnections

3. Indoor FTTB deployments requiring safe and flexible cabling

4. Equipment racks, cabinets and termination boxes

5. Pigtails and patch cord manufacturing

6. Data center indoor pathways where halogen-free performance is required

7. Industrial indoor automation networks where stringent smoke and flame demands apply

The tight-buffer design makes the cable ideal for field termination, splicing and short-distance patching.

Design Advantages

The cable provides several advantages for installers and network operators:

1. Exceptional flexibility for routing around corners and tight indoor pathways

2. Highly reliable indoor flame performance, meeting building safety regulations

3. Simple and fast termination, suitable for field connectors or factory pre-termination

4. Aramid yarn reinforcement ensures solid tensile behavior without compromising cable softness

5. LSZH jacket produces minimal smoke and zero halogen release

6. Available in singlemode or multimode versions, supporting a variety of indoor layouts

7. Stable optical performance across typical indoor temperature ranges

The combination of tight-buffered fibers and LSZH sheathing enhances safety without compromising handling characteristics.
