OM3 50/125 Direct Burial Armored Assemblies

OM3 50/125 Direct Burial Armored Fiber Optic Assemblies are engineered for rugged, permanent outdoor installations that demand durability, protection, and high performance. Built with Corning Altos® cable, these pre-terminated assemblies offer superior crush resistance, waterproof protection, and rodent-resistant shielding. They are ideal for environments where conduit installation is impractical, significantly reducing labor and material costs.

Each assembly features a heavy-duty polyethylene (PE) jacket, corrugated steel armor, and water-blocking swellable tape to ensure reliable signal transmission in harsh outdoor conditions. With options from 2 to 24 strands, these cables support a wide range of data, voice, video, and imaging applications. Whether trenching, securing to a building, or lashing overhead, these assemblies provide the durability and bandwidth necessary for high-performance fiber networks in outdoor settings.
