LTF Armored Cables
LTF Armored Cables are outdoor cables with corrugated steel armor between two jackets.
These provide protection in direct buried or aerial applications in severe environments.
The armor provides protection from rodent attacks and the loose tube, gel-filled core
provides excellent environmental protection.
Loose tube, gel-filled
construction
Rodent-proof design
Suitable for direct buried
applications
Color coded fibers and tubes for
easy identification
Available with up to 144 fibers
Features and Benefits
Applications
· Interbuilding backbone
· Direct buried applications
· Heavy traffic, severe
installation environments

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
ORDERING INFORMATION
All BICC General cables, unless customized, follow the industry standard color code system for easy identification. Cables with 12 or
fewer individual components will follow the color sequence: Blue, Orange, Green, Brown, Slate White, Red, Black, Yellow, Violet, Pink,
Aqua.
For cables having more than 12 fibers, grouping is done following the same sequence for the subgroup and for the fibers within it.
Example: 24 fiber loose tube cable with six fibers in each of four tubesTube colors will be blue, orange, green and brown. Each tube will
have one each of fibers in the first six colors (blue, orange, green, brown, slate, white). Fibers are then identified by tube color/fiber
colorblue/white being the white fiber in the blue tube.
When cables have more than 144 fibers, a black stripe is added to each of the first six colors in order to make 18 recognizable
subgroups.
In some cable designs, jacketed subgroups may be numbered for identification in lieu of color coding.
