Belden Inc. FS1H0246G OM1 24-fiber Hardened Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FS1H0246G is a hardened, outdoor-rated fiber optic patch cable built around an OM1 multimode loose tube core with 24 fibers. Designed for demanding environments, this cable is suited for outside plant (OSP) installations where exposure to moisture, temperature swings, and physical stress require a ruggedized construction. Licensed low-voltage and fiber optic technicians install this cable in structured cabling systems, telecom infrastructure, and industrial network applications where multimode OM1 connectivity is specified.

This patch cable is appropriate for outdoor and outside plant deployments where standard indoor cables are not rated for use. The hardened construction supports direct burial or conduit routing in commercial, campus, and industrial settings. The 24-fiber count makes it well suited for backbone runs and multi-circuit interconnect applications requiring higher fiber density in a single cable assembly.

Key Features

• OM1 multimode fiber supports 62.5/125 micron applications over standard multimode infrastructure
• 24-fiber count provides high-density connectivity in a single cable run
• Hardened construction rated for outdoor and outside plant environments
• Loose tube design protects fibers from mechanical stress and environmental ingress
• OSP-rated for use in conduit or direct burial outside plant installations
• Sold as a single cable assembly (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OSP-rated multimode patch cable for use with OM1 fiber optic systems requiring a 24-fiber hardened outdoor assembly in outside plant cabling infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified fiber optic or low-voltage technicians familiar with outside plant cabling practices and applicable codes. Power down or de-energize any connected active equipment before making or breaking fiber connections. Use proper fiber-safe cleaning tools and follow bend-radius specifications to avoid signal loss or fiber damage. Loose tube gel-filled cables may require cleaning of the buffer tubes before termination.
