General Cable has added another halogen-free line of cables to its 17 FREE offering; the NextGen brand UL-rated Type OFNR tight buffer distribution fiber cables will be offered “at a competitive price and feature substantiated green properties” (the 17 FREE line does not contain any chlorine, fluorine, bromine or iodine, reducing the overall toxicity of the cable). The company says these tight-buffered fibers are easy to handle and strip for field connectorization.
