They are made of several simplex cables bundled together. This is a strong, rugged design, but is larger and more expensive than the distribution cables. It is suitable for conduit runs, riser and plenum applications. Because each fiber is individually reinforced, this design allows for quick termination to connectors and does not require patch panels or boxes.

Breakout cable can be more economic where fiber count isn't too large and distances too long, because is requires so much less labor to terminate.

Features:
1. Breakout designenables individualrouting of fibers fortermination andmaintenance.
2. Suitable for indoor use.
3. Ideal for indoorbackbone andhorizontal runs.
4. The special outerjacket isolates thefiber conductors frommoisture
