GYTC8S Figure-8 Aerial Fiber Cable Armored with Steel Tape

GYTC8S Armored Self-supporting Aerial FIG8 Fiber Optic Cable 

Description:

GYTC8S is an outdoor optical fiber cable for communication with a metal-reinforced structure, loose tube layer-stranded filling type, steel-polyethylene bonded sheath, and figure-8 self-supporting type.

Structure:

• Fiber: Single-mode or multi-mode fibers are placed in loose tubes made of high-modulus polyester material, and the tubes are filled with waterproof compounds.

• CSM: The center of the cable core is a metal central strength member, usually a phosphated steel wire, which has the characteristics of high modulus and corrosion resistance.

• Cable Core: The loose tubes and filling ropes are stranded around the central strength member to form a compact circular cable core, and the gaps in the cable core are filled with water-blocking fillers.

• Sheath: After the cable core is longitudinally wrapped with a plastic-coated steel tape (PSP), it is integrated with the steel wire strand into an 8-shaped polyethylene sheath to form the cable.

Features:

• Good Mechanical Performance: The steel stranded wire is used as the self-supporting member, which can meet the extremely high tensile strength. At the same time, the steel tape longitudinally wrapping the cable core gives the cable a certain lateral pressure resistance and bulletproof ability.

• Excellent Temperature Characteristics: The loose tube material itself has good hydrolysis resistance and high strength, and the special gel filled in the tube provides key protection for the fiber, enabling the cable to work normally in the temperature range of -40°C to +70°C.

• Reliable Waterproof Performance: Through measures such as a single steel wire central strength member, special waterproof compound filled in the loose tube, complete cable core filling, and plastic-coated steel tape, the good waterproof performance of the cable is ensured.

• Convenient Construction: The 8-shaped self-supporting structure eliminates the need for an additional steel strand during erection, which can improve the construction speed.

Applications:

GYTC8S FIG8 Outdoor Optical Fiber Cable is suitable for the core network, metropolitan area network, and access network. It is mainly used for self-supporting overhead laying, as well as for long-distance communication and inter-office communication.
