Cable Clamp
Remarks
NG4-FLXACCSMCMP
(760242717)
This is a stackable clamp with mounting pitch of 1.04 in.
(2.64 cm) for cable diameters of 0.4 – 0.75 in. (1.0 - 1.90
cm). It uses a pair of Phillips head screws for attachment,
and is a good choice for lower count all-dielectric cables
as it is very compact and stackable
FEC-ACCCLMP01
This is a stackable clamp with a mounting pitch of 1.5 in
(3.81 cm) for cable diameters of 0.4 – 1.2 in. (1.0 - 3.05
cm). It uses a 3/8 in. male/female bolt for attachment, and
is a good choice for low or medium count all-dielectric or
armored cables as it is stackable and more robust than the
clamp above
OSP-CLPFEC-XL-1
This is a stackable clamp with a mounting pitch of 1.85 in.
(4.7 cm) for cable diameters of 0.4 – 1.5 in. (1.0 - 3.81
cm) It uses a 3/8 in. male/female bolt for attachment, and
is a good choice for high count all-dielectric or armored
cables. It is also the only option for some of the more
prevalent 3456-fiber cables on the market today
Note:
RIBCBOUT kits include the appropriate cable clamp.
