ProLink PL‑FOC12D‑OM3 — Double Armor Central Loose Tube Fiber Cable, 12‑Core, OM3 Multimode

Key Features:

• 12 OM3 Multimode Fibers — Designed around 50/125 µm OM3 fiber for high‑bandwidth multimode applications (e.g., Gigabit and 10 GbE over typical distances).

• Double Armor Central Loose Tube — Reinforced construction enhances mechanical protection, crush resistance, and pull strength during installation and operation.

• Central Loose Tube Design — Protects fiber strands from microbends and mechanical stresses, maintaining optical performance.

• Robust Outer Jacket — Durable outer sheath (typically PE) protects the internal fibers and armor layers, making it suitable for indoor backbone and conduit installation.

• Structured Cabling Integration — Works seamlessly with fiber distribution frames (ODFs), splice closures, and multimode termination panels.

Technical Highlights:

• Brand: ProLink

• Model: PL‑FOC12D‑OM3

• Cable Type: Double Armor Central Loose Tube

• Fiber Type: OM3 multimode (50/125 µm)

• Fiber Count: 12 cores

• Armor: Double armor for enhanced mechanical robustness

• Outer Diameter: (~10‑12.5 mm depending on armor layering)

• Typical Use: Backbone fiber runs, risers, telecom rooms in enterprise and data center installations

Note: Some listings describe the outer diameter around ~10 mm, while armor presence may increase the jacket diameter slightly.

Performance & Connectivity:

• High‑Bandwidth Support — OM3 multimode fiber is designed for high‑speed links such as 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps Ethernet over conventional multimode spans within buildings and campus networks.

• Mechanical Security — Double armor construction significantly improves crush resistance and tensile strength compared with non‑armored or single armored cables — helpful in pathways with heavier traffic or potential mechanical stress.

• Stable Optical Link — Central loose tube design minimizes microbending losses, helping preserve signal quality under load and over time.
