This Outdoor Corning Altos® Armored Direct Burial (OSPDB) Fiber Optic Cable is rated for almost all outdoor applications. This cable the most durable and rugged fiber optic cabling we offer for permanent installation. It is designed for installation directly buried in trenches and underground installation where rodent chew damage is a concern, overhead lashed to a guy wire, or secured to a building or other permanent outdoor structure. This jacket design also offers superior crush resistance. Our outdoor armored fiber optic cable is perfect for campus backbones, headend termination to a fiber backbone, and intra-building backbones. it is also designed for a variety of voice, data, video, and image applications.
Choosing a direct burial rated jacket helps save time and money in outdoor applications where conduit is necessary, or in industrial environments which require extra protection. Although this option is priced higher than standard indoor/outdoor distribution cable that needs to be ran inside conduit, it outweighs its overall price when compared the cost of purchasing conduit and then the labor involved having to pull the cable through it. This outdoor (OSPDB) armored cable has a heavy duty polyethylene (PE) UV and water proof jacket, corrugated steel tubing, and water blocking swellable tape surrounding the fiber optic strands.

One less worry
I have placed multiple orders with LANshack, all custom lengths, and they have always arrived as described and at length. I honestly do not use anyone else because I have never had a reason to. Prices are competitive and the communication is great.

Fiber cable
I ordered a pre terminated cable with pulling eyes and it was very good quality, pulled through conduit well and after making the connection it functions at 100%. Also shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition.

High quality, excellent performance, made in the USA.
Only some audiophile cables at 5 times the price, may be slightly better in some regards.
