Description:
This is an all-dielectric non-metallic, central loose tube outdoor fiber optic cable (GYFXTY) with aramid yarn as the strength member, supporting 2-24 cores, and it is applicable for both aerial and duct installations, featuring small diameter, light weight, excellent tensile performance, and strong resistance to electromagnetic interference and lightning strikes. The fiber count ranges from 2 to 24 cores, which can be single-mode (such as G.652D, G.657A2) or multi-mode (like 50/125μm, 62.5/125μm) fibers, and it complies with standards such as YD/T1460-2006 and IEC 60794-1.
The 2-24 fibers are positioned in a central loose tube which is filled with tube gel. Then the Aramid Yarn applied around the tube as strength member. Water-blocking yarns used as moisture barrier. Finally the cable is protected by a layer of polyethylene (PE) or LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath, which provides good mechanical protection and environmental resistance.
| Layer | Composition | Function |
| 1. Optical Fiber | Single Mode Fiber(SMF) or Multi Mode Fiber(MMF) | Transmit optical signals |
| 2. Central Loose Tube | PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate) | Encloses and protects optical fibers; filled with water-blocking gel to prevent moisture from entering and protect the fibers from mechanical damage. |
| 3. Non-Metallic Reinforcement | Kevlar Aramid Yarn | Provides excellent tensile strength to resist the pulling force during installation and use |
| 4. Outer Sheath | PE or LSZH | The outermost protective layer; resists UV radiation, aging, and mechanical impact. |
Aerial/Duct Cable GYFXTY
GYFXTY Cable Cross Section
All-Dielectric Design:
There are no metallic components in the whole cable. This design effectively avoids electromagnetic interference (EMI) and lightning strikes, making it very suitable for use in areas with high-voltage power lines and strong electromagnetic environments.
Excellent Mechanical Properties:
The aramid yarn strength member gives the cable high tensile strength (short-term tensile strength can reach about 1500N, long-term tensile strength can reach about 500N). The loose tube structure and outer sheath also enhance the cable's resistance to lateral pressure and bending, with a static bending radius of 12.5 times the cable diameter and a dynamic bending radius of 25 times the cable diameter.
Superior Waterproof Performance:
The loose tube is filled with waterproof gel, and the gaps between the aramid yarns can also be filled with water-blocking materials if necessary. This multi-layer waterproof design ensures that the cable has excellent water-blocking performance and can be used stably in humid outdoor environments.
Compact and Lightweight:
The central loose-tube structure has a high fiber assembly density. Compared with traditional layer-stranded cables, it has a smaller cable diameter (generally about 6.0-8.0mm) and lighter weight, which is convenient for transportation, installation, and can also be applied to air-blown installation in narrow spaces.
Cost-effective:
The unarmored design simplifies the production process. Meanwhile, the small diameter and light weight, which makes the cable have a competitive price while ensuring performance, and is suitable for large-scale deployment.
Applications:
This cable has a wide range of application scenarios due to its all-dielectric characteristics and good mechanical properties, mainly including:
Outdoor Aerial Laying:
It can be directly hung on poles or towers by using suspension hardware. It is suitable for the construction of access networks, metropolitan area networks, and rural communication networks, especially in areas with frequent lightning strikes and strong electromagnetic interference.
Duct Installation:
It can be laid in underground or overhead ducts. Its small diameter and smooth sheath help to reduce friction during pulling, making the laying process efficient and labor-saving. It is often used in urban pipeline communication projects and FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) access engineering.
Indoor - Outdoor Transition:
It can be used for the connection between outdoor trunk lines and indoor equipment rooms, and is suitable for wiring in places with limited space, such as equipment rooms.
Special Scenarios:
It can be applied in communication systems in areas with high safety requirements, such as chemical plants and power plants, as well as in some temporary communication lines and emergency repair projects because of its corrosion resistance and easy installation.
