Overview
The Corning MIC® Tight-Buffered Plenum Cable (Part No. 004K88-31130-29) is a 4-fiber, 62.5 µm multimode OM1 indoor fiber optic cable engineered for intrabuilding backbone and horizontal installations in plenum, riser, and general-purpose environments. With 900 µm TBII® buffered fibers, this cable allows easy, consistent stripping and fast termination — reducing labor time and installation errors on the job site.
The all-dielectric construction requires no grounding or bonding, and the flame-retardant orange outer jacket meets the stringent requirements of NEC® Article 770 with OFNP and FT-6 listings. Ideal for routing through plenum ceilings, riser shafts, telecommunications rooms, and workstation drops in commercial buildings and campuses.
