Corning Cable Systems MIC® Interlocking Armored Riser Cables are standard OFNR MIC Riser Cables designed for use in riser and general purpose environments for intrabuilding backbone and horizontal installations. They use individually jacketed TBII Buffered Fibers enabling easy, consistent stripping and facilitating termination.

The fibers are grouped into jacketed subunits and surrounded by a dielectric central member. This core is protected by a flexible, spirally wrapped, aluminum interlocking armor that offers easy, one-step installation and over seven times the crush protection of unarmored cables. With a flame-retardant outer jacket, this cable is particularly useful for heavy traffic or more challenging mechanical exposure conditions and applications requiring extra rugged cables.

Offered in 50 μm, 62.5 μm, single-mode and hybrid versions, these cables meet the application requirements of the National Electrical Code® (NEC®) and are OFCR and FT-4 listed. These cables also meet ICEA S-83-596 test criteria and are available with Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance.
