For Nigerian deployments, this product should be evaluated as part of the complete network path, including its connectors, mapping and acceptance values. This pre-terminated breakout cable delivers a whole 24-fiber indoor link in one factory-built assembly: an OS2 single-mode trunk on a riser (OFNR) jacket opens into duplex LC UPC legs at every end, each leg optically tested before packing. It replaces a full day of field termination with a single plug-in fitting.

Bend-insensitive glass in real pathways
Backbone routes turn through tight tray corners, congested risers and crowded vertical channels. The G.657.A1 bend-insensitive fiber in the completed assembly tolerates a 10mm fiber bend radius, which means a hurried routing decision during a night maintenance window does not itself turn into a measurable penalty on the link. The glass remains fully compatible with the G.652.D plant it connects to.
Single-mode trunks for building and campus backbones
A pre-terminated OS2 trunk carries the links that leave the room: riser spans between floors, campus backbones between buildings and each wavelength-multiplexed service in between. The glass is the same category used in the outside plant, which means the completed product does not itself become the weak point of the channel loss budget. At 1310 and 1550nm the attenuation stays a fraction of a decibel per kilometer, and every factory-polished connector adds less than 0.3dB when the end faces are clean and seated.
A complete 24-fiber link in one assembly
Twenty-four fibers is the practical size for a row feed or a floor distribution link: enough lanes for a full panel with spares, still light enough for two installers to route without mechanical help. Factory termination means each one of the 48 connector end faces is polished, inspected and tested before the cable assembly ships, a level of consistency that field termination on a ladder rarely reaches.
Duplex legs for duplex optics
The legs are built as duplex pairs as the optics they serve are duplex: transmit and receive travel together from trunk to port. Polarity is fixed at the factory and verified before packing, which means the installer dresses every pair into its port without a second thought about crossover.
Riser jacket for the vertical route
The riser (OFNR) jacket is the rating that lets the completed assembly run vertically between floors without a conduit of its own. The tight-buffered construction inside keeps every fiber individually protected, which means the backbone trunk tolerates the handling of a riser pull and the dressing inside the floor distributor. For routes that leave the riser-rated pathway, the made-to-order versions of this family carry LSZH and plenum options.
From row feed to floor distribution
The natural homes of a 24-fiber duplex-leg trunk are the feeds that terminate as ports: a row of twelve duplex server or switch links, a floor distributor feeding twelve work-area outlets, or a building entrance splitter shelf. In every case the arithmetic is the same - one pull, one dressing operation, twelve tested duplex links - and the alternative is twelve individual cords with twelve times the pathway fill and twelve times the labelling effort.
Planning a trunk route
A multi-fiber trunk is planned once and fitted once, which means the planning deserves the hour it takes. Measure the route through the actual containment, note the bend space at the two cable ends, and decide which end gets pulled. State the pulling eye requirement with the order if the route is long or congested. At the far end, leave the dressing slack the rack panel or cassette needs - the datasheet breakout lengths are the default, and other geometries are confirmed before the build starts.
Fiber Count Selection
This construction is built with 24 Fibers per trunk, terminated and tested as a whole assembly.
Custom Length Production
Stock length choices cover the common routes: 2m (7ft), 10m (33ft), with made-to-order length available beyond the list, including foot-based builds for projects specified in imperial units. Specifying the measured route length keeps the slack out of the tray and the strain off the connector interfaces.
Inspection and Test Procedures
Each trunk is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested leg by leg before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every fiber, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The completed product ships with dust caps on every optical connector and the test results available on request.
Ordering Information and Support
Refer to this configuration by fiber mode, fiber count, connector pair, breakout geometry and length at the request stage a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options - mixed connector families, jacket ratings, pulling eye, labelling or project packing - send the requirement with the enquiry and the factory will establish the build before the build starts. For Nigerian orders, our team can check the requirement before coordinating manufacture and international delivery.
