Notes

Electrical values are expected performance based on cable testing and representative performance within a typical Belden system. Print Includes Descending Footage/Meter Markings from Max. Put-Up Length to 0. Not Suitable for Direct Burial. Cable jacket system is specially designed to protect cable core. Cable contains no water-blocking tapes, gels, or powders. Install in accordance with all applicable electrical codes. Maintain jacket integrity throughout installation process. Do not allow water or fluids to penetrate jacket sheath or to enter ends of cable. Ensure ends of cable will be protected from water/fluids after installation. Belden recommends using an entrance demarcation point when transitioning inside buildings with OSP cables. The suggested transition point is the REVConnect core coupler, part number RVACPKUBK-S1.
