Hubbell HGBL06S Indoor Distribution Cable OS2 SM Plenum 2 Fiber Tight Buffer Yellow

Overview

The Hubbell HGBL06S is a 2-fiber, OS2 single-mode, plenum-rated distribution cable designed for indoor network backbones. Its tight buffer construction provides inherent protection for individual fibers, making it suitable for direct termination in patch panels and equipment racks where space is at a premium. The yellow jacket clearly identifies it as single-mode fiber, crucial for avoiding costly mismatches in high-speed data transmission systems.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with standard fiber optic termination hardware, connectors (LC, SC, ST, etc.), and splicing equipment compatible with OS2 single-mode fiber. It integrates seamlessly into existing enterprise and data center network infrastructure, supporting backbone connectivity for IP cameras, network switches, servers, and other data-intensive devices.

Installation Notes

The minimum bend radius for this cable is 1.0 inch (25.4mm) when un-loaded and 2.0 inches (50.8mm) when loaded. Installation should adhere to standard fiber optic cabling best practices, ensuring no kinks or excessive stress on the fibers. The plenum rating allows for installation in air-handling spaces, meeting building codes for plenum-rated environments.
