EnduraGain OSP Shielded Indoor/Outdoor is a CM rated category cable combining Outside Plant (OSP) Broadband features with an indoor application. It is designed to provide an extension of the LAN beyond the premises or in situations where the NEC code requires an OSP-rated cable and can be used inside the building according to NEC CM rated rules. The cable consists of four (4) balanced twisted pairs surrounded by Superior Essex PFM gel that does not drip or flow, even in cell tower applications at elevated temperatures. The jacketed core is covered with dry block and a shield providing exceptional Alien Crosstalk (AXT) performance. The outer jacket is an OSP-grade, black, halogen-free polyethylene for superior sunlight and abrasion resistance. This shielded design is suitable for the following deployments: duct, underground conduit, tower, lashed aerial, open trench or low-risk direct burial. EnduraGain OSP Shielded Indoor/Outdoor is available in a variety of performances including CAT 6 and CAT 6A.
