864-1728F MassLink™ Indoor and Indoor/Outdoor with FlexRibbon® Cable
MassLink™ with FlexRibbon® technology features an ultra-compact cable design suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. It contains between 864 and 1,728 bend-insensitive fibers. This innovative design employs FlexRibbon technology, which allows the fibers to be tightly rolled and packed into small-diameter tubes that hold either 144 or 288 fibers. While FlexRibbon enables high packing density, the 250μm fiber ribbons still benefit from the advantages of mass fusion splicing.

Features and Benefits
Ultra Compact Design
- FlexRibbons are rolled up into compact 144 or 288-fiber sub-units for easier routing
- Significantly smaller diameter and lighter weight cables allow for easier installation and the use of smaller ducts
- A smaller, more flexible design where the ribbons, tubes, and cables can easily be bent in any direction

- Extremely flexible ribbons can be rolled up for high packing densities or laid flat for ribbon splicing
- FlexRibbons are compatible with mass fusion heat strippers, cleavers, and splice machines
- Uses standard 250μm coated bend-insensitive fiber (ITU G657.A1)
Performance
- Uses full dry water blocking technology in the tubes and cable core for easy closure preparation and termination
- Tested in accordance with GR-20 and ICEA 696 and with relevant EIA/TIA-455 series FOTPs for fiber optic cables
