The ArgusX™ series is Hermesys’s non-armoured LSOH fiber optic cable line, designed for operators and network integrators who need very high fiber counts in a single, manageable cable bundle. This 1728-fiber configuration uses a semi-dry construction, Combining water-blocking yarn and water-blocking tape instead of full gel-filling for cleaner, faster field termination while still protecting against water ingress. Each of the 36 loose tubes is color-coded and holds 48 x 200 µm-coated fibers, with the whole bundle stranded around a central FRP strength member and reinforced with an aramid yarn peripheral strength layer beneath the LSOH outer sheath.
Key Features
- Ultra-high fiber density: 1728 fibers in 36 tubes (48F/tube) for maximum capacity per cable run
- Semi-dry loose tube design: water blocking yarn + water blocking tape for faster, cleaner splicing than fully gel-filled tubes
- FRP central strength member: lightweight, non-conductive, corrosion-resistant central support
- Aramid yarn reinforcement: adds tensile strength without adding metallic components
- Non-armoured, fully dielectric construction: safe for use near electrical infrastructure and in EMI-sensitive environments
- LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath: reduces toxic smoke and corrosive gas release in fire conditions
- Compact, lightweight profile: 22.9 mm OD and ~455 kg/km, easier handling and installation than armoured alternatives
- Dual ripcords: simplifies sheath removal during termination and splicing
Fire Retardant & Compliance
- Fire retardant per IEC 60332-1
- Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSOH) certified to IEC 60754-1 & 2 (halogen acid gas) and IEC 61034-2 (smoke density)
