Optical Cable Corp. DX006DWLS9ORI2 Armored Riser Fiber Cable

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. DX006DWLS9ORI2 is a 6-fiber armored riser-rated multimode fiber optic cable built on 62.5-micron OM1 glass. The armored construction provides mechanical protection against crush and rodent damage, making it suitable for runs where standard jacketed cable would be vulnerable. The riser rating (OFNR) meets vertical-run fire code requirements for installations between floors inside a building. This cable is handled and terminated by low-voltage technicians, data cabling contractors, and network infrastructure installers.

This cable is designed for intrabuilding backbone and horizontal runs in commercial and institutional settings. Its 62.5-micron OM1 multimode core supports legacy and active multimode transceivers operating over short to medium distances. Typical applications include riser runs between telecommunications rooms, patch panel feeds, and structured cabling backbone segments where physical protection is required alongside fire-code compliance. The 6-fiber count suits small-to-mid-scale deployments where a compact bundle is preferred.

Key Features

• 6-fiber count in a single armored cable assembly
• 62.5-micron OM1 multimode glass core for compatibility with legacy multimode infrastructure
• Armored construction provides crush resistance and mechanical protection in exposed or semi-exposed pathways
• Riser (OFNR) fire rating meets NEC requirements for vertical intrabuilding cable runs
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for flexible quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style riser armored fiber optic cable for use with standard 62.5-micron OM1 multimode connectors, patch panels, and transceivers in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician in accordance with NEC Article 770 governing optical fiber cables. De-energize any active equipment at both termination points before connecting or disconnecting fiber. Observe minimum bend radius requirements during pulling and routing to avoid microbend loss or fiber damage. Do not exceed the cable rated tensile load during installation pulls.
