Tight Buffered Fiber
TBF
Tight Buffered Fiber is an optical fiber coated with a protective tight buffer layer for improved handling, stripping and mechanical protection. Available in single-mode and multimode fiber types with customizable buffer diameters and colors for indoor fiber optic cable, pigtail and connectivity applications.
FASOCOM Tight Buffered Fiber consists of an optical fiber directly coated with a protective tight buffer layer, providing enhanced mechanical protection, easy handling and good stripping performance.
It is available with single-mode and multimode optical fibers, multiple buffer diameters and standard or customized colors. Tight buffered fiber is widely used as a basic component for indoor fiber optic cables, fiber pigtails, optical connectivity assemblies and other fiber termination applications.
