From the trusted RS PRO brand, this eight-way fibre optic cable has a robust LSZH outer jacket suitable for more rugged applications. With eight OM3 fibre cores providing a reliable cable for communication over short distances. The robust outer insulation ensures the cable is resistant to abrasion and damage that might be caused by tugging or pulling, meaning it is ideally suited for demanding cabling installations. This eight-core fibre optic cable is ideal for areas where the cables are very close together or not well ventilated due to the LSZH outer jacket. Fibre optic cables have revolutionised networking due to their ability to transmit signals extremely fast, have higher bandwidth and are less susceptible to interference meaning they are ideal for environments that require more reliable fast data transference.

Fibre optic cables are network cables that contain one or more transparent optical fibres that are used to carry light. The optical fibres are typically glass or plastic pipes contained in a protective tube suitable for long-distance, very high-performance data networking and telecommunications. A key advantage of fibre optic cables over metal conductor cables is superior performance in terms of bandwidth and data-carrying performance.
Fibre optic cables are in internet, phone and TV applications. They’re also used in decorative lighting, for example, you can get fibre optic Christmas trees. Their ability to save space means that they are used in the lighting and safety features of cars. They are often found in
