Belden Inc. DEIP168F Indoor 16-pair Fiber Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. DEIP168F is an indoor composite fiber cable designed for structured cabling and low-voltage data distribution systems. Featuring a 16-pair, 8-pair-per-group configuration, this cable is built for permanent indoor installations where reliable signal transmission and physical protection are required. Licensed low-voltage and data communications contractors typically specify this cable for backbone and horizontal distribution runs inside commercial and residential buildings. The composite construction integrates fiber elements for high-bandwidth signal performance in a single, manageable cable assembly.

This cable is suited for indoor structured cabling projects including commercial office buildings, data centers, and institutional facilities. It is appropriate for runs between telecommunications rooms, equipment rooms, and work area outlets. Installers working on fiber backbone distribution or hybrid copper-fiber systems will find this cable applicable to permanent link installations that demand organized, code-compliant cabling infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or communications cabling contractor in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 standards and applicable local codes. De-energize any adjacent electrical systems before beginning cable pulls in shared pathways. Avoid sharp bend radii and pinch points during routing to prevent signal degradation in the fiber elements. Do not exceed the cable's rated pulling tension during installation.
