The Navigator^® SparkRibbon™ armored series is the powerhouse of high-density OSP deployments. By combining flat ribbon matrices in a central tube configuration with a corrugated steel armor, this cable delivers maximum fiber capacity in a rugged, protective housing. The gel-free design ensures that even at extreme fiber counts, preparation is clean, fast, and efficient, making it the premier choice for direct-buried metro backbones and high-risk duct environments.

Features and Benefits

• Optimized ribbon stacking allows for superior space utilization within the tube, packing more ribbons into a smaller footprint than standard configurations.

• A robust metallic layer provides superior crush resistance and a barrier against rodent damage, ensuring long-term infrastructure security.

• Dry water-blocking materials eliminate the need for cleaning solvents.

• Utilizes standard flat ribbons, ensuring 100% compatibility with existing mass fusion splicers and standard ribbon hardware.
