Figure 8 Self-Supporting Outdoor Armored Cable For Long-Distance Communication
GYTC8S Armored Outdoor Figure 8 Self-Supporting Fiber Optic Cable
Description
The 250μm optical fibers are housed within high-modulus plastic loose tubes filled with a waterproof
compound to ensure compactness and longitudinal waterproofing. These tubes are additionally
protected by aluminum tape. Combined with support wires, they are encased in a polyethylene
sheath to form a figure-8 structure.
Application
1. Designed for outdoor deployment to ensure resilience in diverse environmental conditions.
2. Supports flexible installation methods including aerial installations and pipeline laying.
3. Facilitates both long-distance and local area network communication requirements.
Characteristics
1. Incorporates non-metallic strength components for excellent anti-electromagnetic capabilities.
2. Utilizes a loose tube design to ensure optimal fiber performance and protection.
3. Demonstrates exceptional mechanical and environmental resilience.
4. Exhibits flexibility and bending capabilities to suit various installation scenarios.
5. Features a small outer diameter and lightweight construction for easy installation.
6. Fully filled cable core provides maximum protection against moisture and contaminants.
7. Aluminum tape serves as a moisture barrier, enhancing the cable's durability.
