Loose Tube Stranded Unarmored Optical Cable (GYTA)

The GYTA optical cable consists of 250µm fibers placed into loose tubes made of high-modulus material, with the tubes filled with water-blocking compound. The center of the cable core is a metallic strength member; for certain fiber counts, a layer of polyethylene (PE) is extruded over the strength member. The loose tubes (and fillers) are stranded around the central strength member into a compact and circular cable core, with water-blocking filling in the interstices. The core is wrapped with aluminum-plastic laminated tape (APL) and finished with an extruded polyethylene jacket.
Standards
  • YOFC GYTA optical cable complies with YD/T 901 and IEC 60794-1 standards.
Features

•  Excellent mechanical performance and temperature characteristics

•  The loose tube material itself has excellent hydrolysis resistance and high strength

•  The tubes are filled with special jelly for critical protection of the fibers

•  Specially designed compact cable structure effectively prevents tube retraction

•  PE jacket offers excellent UV radiation resistance

•  The following measures are adopted to ensure the waterproof performance of the cable:

- Single steel wire central strength member

- Loose tubes filled with special water-blocking compound

- Fully filled cable core

- Aluminum-plastic laminated tape (APL) moisture barrier
