Kramer Electronics 97-04161066 Fiber Optic Plenum Cable

Product Description

The KRAMER ELECTRONICS 97-04161066 is a high-speed fiber optic plenum-rated cable designed for structured AV signal transmission in commercial and professional installations. Plenum-rated construction means the cable jacket meets the fire-resistance and low-smoke requirements needed for installation in plenum air-handling spaces above drop ceilings and below raised floors. This type of cable is used to carry high-speed optical signals with minimal loss over longer runs than copper alternatives. AV integrators, low-voltage technicians, and licensed electricians typically specify plenum-rated cable for commercial builds where building codes require it.

This fiber optic plenum cable is suited for commercial AV infrastructure projects where signal integrity and code compliance are both priorities. Plenum spaces in office buildings, schools, hospitals, and data centers frequently require plenum-rated cabling to satisfy fire code. The high-speed designation indicates the cable is engineered to support demanding bandwidth requirements typical in professional AV signal distribution systems.

Key Features

• Plenum-rated jacket meets fire-resistance and low-smoke-emission standards for air-handling space installations
• High-speed fiber optic design supports demanding AV signal transmission with low signal loss
• Suitable for commercial structured cabling environments including drop-ceiling and raised-floor plenum spaces
• Sold as an individual unit for precise quantity ordering on projects

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style accessory for professional AV signal processing and distribution systems requiring plenum-rated fiber optic cabling.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician familiar with NEC Article 770 governing optical fiber cables and raceways. Verify local building and fire codes before routing cable through plenum air-handling spaces, as requirements may vary by jurisdiction. Avoid sharp bend radii that exceed the cable's minimum bend radius specification, as this can cause signal degradation or physical damage to the fiber. De-energize any connected AV equipment before terminating or patching fiber connections.
