Typical Indoor/Outdoor Plenum Rated Interlocking Armored Jacket Applications:
Our Indoor/Outdoor Plenum Rated Interlocking Armored Custom Pre-Terminated Fiber Optic Cable Assemblies help save time and money in indoor and outdoor applications where innerduct or conduit is necessary, or in industrial environments which require extra protection. Although this option is priced higher than standard indoor distribution cable, it outweighs its overall price when compared the cost of purchasing innerduct/conduit, indoor fiber, and installation for both. This fiber is suitable for indoor and outdoor use, so there is no 50 foot fire code requirement traditionally found with outdoor (OSP) cable.
Note: If part of your run requires conduit usage you must use have at least a 3" conduit in place with sweeping bends.
Interlocking armored cables are standard distribution cables inside a spirally wrapped aluminum interlocking armor with a heavy-duty outer jacket. This combination provides superior crush resistance. This type of cable is also useful for warehouses or attic areas where the presence of rodent chew hazards may exist. This indoor/outdoor interlocking armored cable has a water blocking aramid yarn strength member surrounding the fiber optic strands and a UV resistant outer jacket making it a very versatile and perfect choice for a large variety of installations.
Our pre-terminated fiber optic assemblies are perfect for headend termination to a fiber backbone, termination of fiber rack systems, multi-floor deployment where select fibers are used at each floor, or intra-building backbones. Our indoor/outdoor plenum rated jacket assemblies are rated for all indoor installations, including plenum rated spaces. A cable rated for plenum installation will have low-smoke characteristics as defined by the NFPA (National Fire Protection Agency).
Standard QuickTreX® Manufacturing Features:
- Fast Custom ISO 9001 Certified Manufacturing in the USA. 2-millimeter color coded or sequentially labeled furcation tubing is installed on each strand for easy identification and extra durability before, during, and after the pull.
- Heat shrink tubing and glue set is used at the transition from the jacket to the furcation tubing providing superior strength and strain relief while pulling the assembly.
- Connectors inside the basket are staggered for less bulk and more flexibility.
- Each connector is individually plastic wrapped to prevent contamination by pulling lubricants and/or other contaminants.
- Each assembly includes a wrap around-label on both ends of the assembly which will include the QuickTreX® part number and individual serial number.
- Each Assembly includes a full test report. During our testing process all fiber ends are visually inspected with a fiberscope of 400 power or better for surface defects including, cracking, pitting, and scratches, on the glass surface of the connector. All connector ends are then tested utilizing a professional grade Loss Test Set.
- The test report is saved in our database for 1 year and can be requested at any time.
- Pulling Eyes (pulling baskets) if equipped are made from super strong polyethylene mesh and feature a free-spinning buckle to eliminate twisting of the cable during the pull. Heat shrink tubing is used at:
1. Where the basket meets with the turnbuckle (pull eye hook)
2. Where the basket ends and connects with the cable jacket to prevent snags and promote a smooth pull.
Common Applications
This versatile single-strand cable is designed for a variety of applications, including but not limited to:
- Fiber Backbone Termination: Efficient link closures in high-performance IT infrastructures.
- Conduit and Duct Installations: Simplifies pulls with optional pulling eyes and crush-resistant armor.
- Rodent-Resistant Uses: Ideal for warehouses, industrial settings, and attic spaces prone to chew hazards.
- Indoor Plenum Spaces: Meets strict safety codes for fire suppression and low-smoke emission requirements.
- Outdoor Deployments: UV and water-resistant properties make this a durable choice for open-air environments.
Why 1 Strand is the Best Fit for These Applications
The 1-strand configuration is a practical solution for projects requiring precision and reliability in smaller-scale, manageable deployments.
- Compact and Efficient: Perfect for scenarios requiring minimal space usage without sacrificing performance.
- Cost-Effective: Reduces material and installation costs for small-capacity networks or extensions.
- Maximum Protection: Heavy-duty interlocking armor ensures durability and environmental resilience even in physically demanding settings.
This single-strand fiber assembly delivers the perfect balance of capability, space efficiency, and robust protection, making it the go-to option for specific and scalable networking needs.

I have used LanShack for custom pre-terminated fiber assemblies for a couple of years now. The quality of the product is top notch. Setting up a new building and ordered this 1200' to connect 2 buildings together. Great termination quality. Zero issues installing and connecting. Connection lit from the start. Thank you very much.
Whenever we need to install a fiber link from one building to another, we order pre-terminated assemblies from LanShack ! Always done right, very reasonable turn around times. Shipping deals are always a plus.
Great, friendly customer support. Received my shipment a day early which in turn allowed me to pick up two extra jobs. Will recommend to orher contractors.
Lanshack pre-made fber cables are well made, easy to install and they save you time and money. I make more money installing Lanshack's pre-made fiber cables, my labor cost to install goes down and my profits goes up.
Great selection and options. Very pleased with the quality of the fiber cable. Good communications. Will use again!
