Figure 8 self-supporting Center Tube Optical cable GYXTC8S
The fibers, 250μm, are positioned in a loose tube made of a high modulus plastic, the tubes are filled with a water-resistant filling compound. Loose tubes filled with water proof compound to ensure compact and longitudinally water blocking, this part of cable accompanied with the wires as the supporting part are completed with a polyethylene(PE) sheath to be figure 8 structure.
This specification covers the general requirements of Figure 8 self-supporting cable for aerial .
· High tensile strength of stranded wires meet the requirement of self-supporting
· and reduce the installation cost.
· Good mechanical and temperature performance
· High strength loose tube that is hydrolysis resistant
· Special tube filling compound ensure a critical protection of fiber
· The following measures are taken to ensure the cable watertight:
· Loose tube filling compound
· 100% cable core filling
· steel tape moisture barrier
· and reduce the installation cost.
