How much protection does fiber need once it leaves the building? This short video introduces the OL4 LC-LC Armored Extreme patch cable, built with stainless steel armor and Kevlar. See how a flame-retardant, crush-, water-, and rodent-resistant design holds up across indoor, outdoor, and direct underground installations.
What is the OL4 LCLC Armored Extreme cable?
The OL4 LCLC Armored Extreme cable is an **OM4 fiber optic cable** designed for demanding environments. It uses **buckled fiber with stainless steel armor** plus **Kevlar reinforcement** to protect the fibers. The cable jacket is **flame retardant** and engineered to be **crush resistant, water resistant, and rodent resistant**, making it suitable for a wide range of tough installation conditions.
Where can this armored cable be installed?
The OL4 LCLC Armored Extreme cable is designed to **reimagine deployment flexibility**. It can be used in:
- Indoor environments – such as data centers, telecom rooms, and building risers.
- Outdoor runs – where exposure to weather and physical impact is a concern.
- Underground installations – including conduits and similar pathways where added protection is needed.
Because it is **flame retardant** and **resistant to crush, water, and rodents**, it supports a consistent cabling approach across different parts of your network infrastructure.
How does the cable handle physical and environmental stress?
The OL4 LCLC Armored Extreme cable is built to **reshape expectations** for durability in fiber runs:
- Stainless steel armor helps protect against crushing forces and physical impact.
- Kevlar strength members add tensile strength to handle pulling and installation stress.
- Flame retardant jacket supports use in areas with fire safety requirements.
- Water resistance helps protect performance in damp or wet conditions.
- Rodent resistance reduces the risk of damage from chewing in challenging environments.
Together, these features help maintain signal integrity and reduce the likelihood of cable damage over time in extreme use cases.
