applications. The design uses both 24- and 36-fiber rib-
bons within a central tube which work to minimize the
buffer tube and cable dimensions. The SST-UltraRibbon
Cables are the smallest and lightest in the industry and
designed to maximize the use of critical duct space with
excellent installation results. Available in fiber counts
from 240 to 432, 576, 720 or 864, each 24- or 36-fiber
