Intermittently Bonded Ribbon (IBR) Fiber Optic Cable, Armored | Celesta | STL

STL's Celesta IBR (Intelligent Bonded Ribbon) Cable is a high-density fiber optic cable designed for high-bandwidth communication networks, including data centers, backbone networks, and outside plant (OSP) applications.

STL CELESTA® Unitube Single Jacket Steel Tape Armored Cable combines robust performance for duct as well as direct installations with the productivity of high count mass fusion splicing. The optical fibers are arranged into ribbon units by placing the fibers in a flat array of color-coded fibers partially bonded together by a UV-curable acrylate matrix.

CELESTA comes with gel free technology, the inner sheath contain water swellable yarns and is surrounded with water-swellable tape to prevent water ingress in the cable. A Corrugated Steel Tape armor surrounds the inner sheath making the cable robust and installation friendly.
