GenSPEED® 1.4mm Units Micro Fiber Cable

GenSPEED® Micro Fiber Cable (MFC) 1.4mm Riser-Plenum 12-48f
Product description

GenSPEED® MFC is an ideal cable for data centers, co-location facilities, and central offices that require a compact and highly flexible design. This cable features 12 fiber strands with 250-micron color-coded fibers, arranged into subunits with a diameter of 1.4 mm. This design guarantees high performance and density. The subunits can be directly terminated to MPO-style connectors. MFC is well suited for jetting in premise microducts that are riser or plenum rated. 

The GenSPEED® 1.4mm Units Micro Fiber Cable combines compactness, strength, and flame-rated safety in one efficient package. Engineered as a Premise Micro Distribution Fiber Optic Cable, it offers superior flexibility for routing through trays, racks, and confined spaces within enterprise and data center environments. Its bend-insensitive fiber ensures consistent optical performance, while the rugged thermoplastic jacket delivers durability and crush resistance. Available in both riser and plenum versions, this cable meets the latest international flame-retardant standards for secure in-building installations.
