GCYFY Stranded Loose Tube Air-blown Micro Fiber Optic Cable

GCYFY                                                                                            Stranded Loose Tube Air-blown Micro Fiber Optic Cable for FTTH Metropolitan area Access networks

Introduction:

Optical fibres are housed in a loose tube that is made of high-modulus plastic and filled with tube filling compounds.Aramid yarns are placed outside the loose tube as the strength member, then a sheath with grooves is extruded. This type of cable is particularly applicable to air-blowing constructions in access networks.

Features:

● Small size and light weight
● Tube filling compound providing key protection for fibres
● Unique design of sheath with grooves ensuring good air blowing performance
● Allowing to blow by phases to reduce initial investment
● High blowing speed up to 50m/min, and long blowing distance up to 1000m
● Allowing to blow out and replace with new cables to keep technical superiority
● Allowing to cut micro ducts anywhere anytime for branch without influences on other cables, saving manholes, hand holes and cable joints
