Corning SST 6-Fiber OM3 LSZH Armored Central Tube Indoor/Outdoor Cable (006TEY-13188H2G)

The Corning 006TEY-13188H2G is a 6-fiber OM3 multimode optical fiber cable designed for indoor and outdoor installations. It features a central loose tube construction with corrugated steel tape armor, providing mechanical and rodent protection for dependable fiber-optic connectivity in building backbones and interbuilding links. Its compact, flexible design supports installation in ducts, conduits, direct-buried applications, and indoor riser and horizontal routes.

The cable incorporates water-blocking technology, UV and microbe resistance, and a flame-retardant, low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH/FRNC) outer jacket. The color-coded fibers support quick identification during installation and maintenance.
