Multifiber Cable Assembly, Indoor, RPM 253
Interconnect Cable
Data Sheet
The assembly is intended for indoor
interconnection between transmission
equipment and patch panels or similar
fixed routes.
The cable is delivered pre-terminated in
both ends. Standard connector options are
SC, LC - UPC and APC and the most
common hybrid conversions between the
different connector types.
The assembly is based on Ericsson’s well-
proven micro cable technology. The fibers
in the cable break out to individual patch
cords. One end is 1.5 m in order to reach
all ports within one rack frame. The other
end is 0.7 m to minimize slack and over
length at the opposite side to be directly
connected to a patch panel or active ports.
The slim and robust assembly requires no
extra protection and takes minimum space
for example in overhead cable cutes. The
assemblies are available in several fixed
lengths and are easy to coil thanks to the
bend insensitive G657A2 fiber.
The assembly is designed to withstand
flame resistance in accordance with IEC
60332-1.
