Description
GYTC8A cable FIG 8 SCPT Fiber Optic Cable is a type of outdoor optical fiber cable, specifically designed for aerial installations.
1. Structure:
- Central Strength Member: Usually made of steel, which provides mechanical strength to the cable.
- Loose Tube: The optical fibers are housed in a loose tube filled with a water-resistant gel to protect against moisture.
- Stranding: The loose tubes and fillers (if any) are stranded around the central strength member to form the cable core.
- Water-blocking Tape: To prevent water ingress into the cable.
- Steel Wire/Stranded Steel Wires: These are applied over the cable core for additional tensile strength, making the cable suitable for aerial installations.
- Outer Sheath: Typically made of polyethylene (PE), providing protection against UV radiation and environmental factors.
2. Characteristics:
- Aerial Self-Supporting: The GYTC8A cable is designed for self-supporting aerial installation, meaning it does not require a messenger wire for support.
- Moisture Resistance: The water-blocking design prevents water ingress, ensuring long-term stability and performance.
- High Tensile Strength: The steel components provide the cable with the ability to withstand high tensile forces, which is crucial for aerial installations.
- UV Resistance: The PE sheath protects the cable from UV degradation.
3. Advantages of GYTC8A Cable:
- Durability: Designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including temperature fluctuations, moisture, and UV exposure.
- Ease of Installation: The self-supporting design simplifies installation, especially in aerial applications.
This GYTC8A cable is commonly used in telecommunications and other industries where reliable outdoor fiber optic connections needed
In thecable, single-mode/multimode fibers are positioned in the loose tubes, while the loose tubes strand together around metallic central strength member into a compact and circular cable core. and the water-blocking materials are distributed into interstices of it. After a APL is applied around the cable core, this part of cable accompanied with the stranded wires as the supporting part are completed with a PE sheath to be a figure-8 structure.
