As an esteemed channel partner with Corning Optical Fiber, TLC manufactures a comprehensive range of cables, including Simplex, Duplex, Distribution (indoor and indoor/outdoor), Ribbon, Dry Loose Tube (indoor/outdoor), Breakout, and Micro-distribution (data center) cables, all crafted with Corning’s cutting-edge fiber technologies. Additionally, most TLC cables are available with Interlocking Aluminum Armoring. Our offerings also encompass connectorization products like Furcation Tubing, designed for standard termination processes, as well as Fan-out and Breakout kits.

Our unwavering commitment to exceptional customer service, short lead times, robust stock positions, custom capabilities, and accommodating low minimum order quantities has streamlined business interactions, facilitating both TLC’s and our clients’ growth. We specialize in tailoring cables to unique customer specifications, be it a distinctive jacket color, specialized printing, hybrid or composite cables, or jacketing of customer-supplied fiber. The TLC engineering and production teams ensure precision and punctuality in every order.

Interlocking Armored Cable

Interlocking Armored Cable – TLC Interlocking Armored Cables (aluminum) are standard cables inside a spirally wrapped interlocking armor for enhanced crush resistance and ruggedness. Available in riser and plenum constructions, interlocking armor can be used for general inside plant applications in place of a conduit.

Applications: Data Centers – Indoor areas where heavy traffic requires extra protection – Intra building backbones and general purpose

Breakout Cable

Breakout cable consists of 2mm subunits with 900mm tight buffers (other sizes available). Combining strength, flexibility, and no need for fan-out kits or tubing when terminating, these rugged cables are ideal for indoor and indoor/outdoor applications. TLC offers Breakout cables from 2-12 fiber constructions with plenum and riser ratings.

Applications: Office Cabling – Computer Room

Breakout Kits

The TLC 2mm and 3mm Breakout kits are used for the quick and simple termination of 900um distribution cables. TIA/EIA color coded furcation tubing allows for the easy identification of the tight buffered fibers and the new and improved inner tubes provide excellent protection against kinking when terminating.

Applications: The “build up” or “break out” of 900mm distribution cables for terminating – General indoor use where extra protection is needed – Computer rooms – Ideal for adding protection and strength to 250um fibers and 900um tight buffers for direct termination to connectors

Distribution Cables

TLC Distribution cables are designed for general indoor use. Offered in all fiber types, a thick durable jacket offers excellent strength and protection during installations and restorations. The 900um color-coded tight buffers allow for easy identification and termination. Cables are available in OFNR, OFNP and LSZH constructions.

Applications: General indoor applications – Trunk cable between floors – Data centers

Tight Buffered Cables

Individual Tight Buffered fibers are available and preferred in production environments because of their ease of stripping. 900um, 800um and 650um buffer sizes match existing tooling and fit the vast array of today’s connectors. 12 standard colors are available in all sizes and most fiber types.

Applications: Data centers – Testing environments – Launch (pulse) boxes – Patch cords

Fan Out Kits

TLC Fan Out kits are designed for the quick and simple termination of loose tube (bare fiber) products. The three unique clips (included) accept different tube sizes including ribbon, 2mm, and 3mm. 12 standard colors of the 900mm Hytrel® tubes allow for easy identification of fibers.

Applications: -The “build up or “break out” of bare fiber tubes for termination – Quick and easy termination – Durable protection for bare fibers – Ideal for adding protection and strength to 250um fibers and 900um tight buffers for direct termination to connectors

Indoor/Outdoor Cables

A UV resistant jacket and available OFNR or OFNP constructions allow TLC indoor/outdoor cables to be used for general outdoor application while having the flexibility for indoor deployment without fire code constraints. Constructions consist of 900μm color coded tight buffers.

Applications: – General indoor and outdoor use – Between buildings – Underground in a conduit – Duct – General Purpose – Riser – Plenum

Micro-Distribution Cables

TLC Micro-Distribution Cable combines high fiber counts with a compact, space-saving design. 2 to 12 colored bare fibers with aramid yarn are positioned in a 3 mm jacket. 8 tubes of 12 fibers are combined to make up to 96 fibers. Each subunit is numbered for ease of installation with riser and plenum rated construction available. TLC’s Fanout Kits are a perfect match with Micro-Distribution.

Applications: Data Centers – Ready for MTP connectors – High density Installations – Ready to ribbonize

High Density Micro-Distribution Cables

TLC Micro-Distribution Cable combines high fiber counts with a compact, space-saving design. 2 to 12 colored bare fibers with aramid yarn are positioned in a 3 mm jacket. 8 tubes of 12 fibers are combined to make up to 96 fibers. Each subunit is numbered for ease of installation with riser and plenum rated construction available. TLC’s Fanout Kits are a perfect match with Micro-Distribution.

Applications: Data Centers – Ready for MTP connectors – High density Installations – Ready to ribbonize

Ribbon Cables

TLC’s at ribbon cable is compatible with the current industry tools and termination products (mainly MTP and MPO connectors). In OFNR and OFNP constructions as well as a LSZH jacket, TLC offers ber counts from 2-12. Unrated bare ribbon ber also available.

Applications: Data Centers – Computer rooms and closets – Commonly used with MTP or MPO connectors – High density areas where space are at premium

Simplex Cables

TLC Simplex cables are designed for general patch cord production where consistency and uniformity are vital for fast efficient terminations. Simplex cables are offered in several outside diameter sizes and meet all tooling and termination requirements.

Applications: Patch cord production – Data centers – Indoor point to point connections

Duplex Cables

TLC Duplex cables are designed for general patch cord production where consistency and uniformity are vital for fast, efficient terminations. Duplex cables are offered in several outside diameter sizes and meet all tooling and termination requirements.

Applications: Patch cord production – Data centers – Indoor point-to-point connections
