What is a Core-Locked™ fiber optic cable and why is it important?
A. Some of Optical Cable Corporation’s fiber optic cables feature a Core-Locked™ outer jacket that is pressure extruded over the interior cable structure. This jacket allows the cable to act as one mechanical unit and simplifies its installation because the pulling device (for example, Kellems® grips) is attached directly to the cable outer jacket.
