MIL-PRF-85045/17C
Long-term minimum bend diameter: Sixteen times the OFCC outer diameter.
Tensile Loading: >270 N
Dynamic bend tensile load: 90 N minimum
Jacket material: The OFCC jacket shall be composed of a low halogen, low smoke, low toxicity polymer
material.
Finished cable:
Dimensions and configuration: See figure 2. Eight OFCC units shall be helically laid over the central member.
The minimum outer jacket thickness shall be not less than 1.2 mm (establishes compatibility with termination and
penetration devices).
NOTE:
OFCC Optical fiber cable component
1.
FIGURE 2. Eight-OFCC fiber optic cable.
Number of fibers: 8 (one per OFCC)
Concentricity: >0.65
Mass per unit length: <175 kg/km
Jacket material: The overall jacket shall be composed of a low halogen, low smoke, low toxicity polymer
material.
Cable jacket color: Shall be black or blue.
Short-term minimum bend diameter: Eight times the cable outer diameter. (The short-term minimum bend
diameter is to be used in all environmental and mechanical tests which specify a cable minimum bend diameter.)
Long-term minimum bend diameter: Sixteen times the cable outer diameter.
Minimum continuous length: The minimum continuous length of all cables shall be not less than 0.5 km. If
lengths less than 0.5 km are specified in the purchase order, a conformance inspection shall be performed on test
specimens not less than 0.5 km in length from which the purchase order lengths are cut.
