Typical Cross-Section Messenger Wire Compliances: • Tested in accordance with EIA/TIA-455 IFOTPs • CEA S-87-640 • GR-20 • RoHS Compliant Directive 2002/95/EC Jacket Web Outer Jacket Installation Notes: The Maximum Tensile Load in the data table refers to the cable core only. Users should base sag and tension calculations on 1/4" EHS messenger per local guidelines and practices. Additional data is available upon request. Water Blocking Tape Options: Gel-Filled Buffer Tube • Alternate 6-fiber per tube available upon request Central Strength Member Filler * Sequential meter markings available upon request **Installation load should be lower than maximum rated cable load to allow for wind and ice loading in accordance with NESC guidelines. Ripcord 48 Fiber Hybrid designs (containing singlemode and multimode fiber) and composite designs (containing copper conductors) are also available.
