Introduction of Biological Protection (Anti-Rodent, Anti-Termite,Anti-Birds) Optic Cable  

Zion Communication provides optical cables resistant to biological hazards caused by rodents, termites and birds, etc., after installation. 

Rodents often damage optical cables. Termites not only bite but also release formic acid to the cables. 

Our design methods include physical(including metallic and glass fiber armor and nylon sheath) and chemical (Spicy additives ) against biological hazards.  

■ Features

• defect-free process ensures that the system exerts stable mechanical and thermal parameters.

• The design is radically all-dielectric, which guarantees a hazard-free environment, putting it away from the zone where lightning frequently strikes.

• Competitively compact size and lightweight.

• Fibers made of glass yarns provide a certain level of protection from rodents' teeth.

• Of hard nylon, the outer sheath has a high degree of hardness, which offers a specific anti-termite effect.

■ Physical Methods

Metallic Armors:

• Stainless Steel Tape: Resistance towards the attacks of Rodents and Birds.

• Steel Wires: Wire type (the exact type is not indicated).

Non-Metallic Armors:

• FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic): Deterrence against attacks of Rodents and Birds.

• Glass Yarn: Protection against invasion of Rodent.

• Nylon Sheath / Nylon Outer Sheath: Protection against invasion of Termite.

Zion Communication's GYGXZY04 series of anti-rodent and anti-termite glass fibre tape nylon sheath uni-tube fibre optic cable exhibits the capability to withstand the given parameters. Lastly, this cable is uni-tube designed, with either single-mode or multimode fibers, wrapped by the glass fiber tape for rodent resistance and a nylon outer sheath to prevent the entry of termites. A polyethylene (PE) inner sheath, which can be termed durability plus, is an added advantage, making it suitable for outdoor conditions that have biological risks.

GYXTY53 Anti-Rodent Anti-Birds Steel Taped Double Sheath Uni-tube Fiber Optic Cable

These cables are made with a uni-tube configuration, steel tape armor, parallel steel wires, double PE sheath, and have anti-rodent and anti-bird features. They are meant for outdoor use, where the cables face a lot of physical and biological dangers.

GYXTS Anti-Rodent Anti-Birds Steel Tape Uni-tube Fiber Optic Cable

This uni-tube cable is armored with steel tape and reinforced with steel wires, encased in a single PE sheath. Such outdoor installations with a necessity of deep biological resistance and a good balance of strength around such installations are gluons agnostic they provide reliable protection.

GYXTY Anti-Rodent Anti-Birds Steel Taped Uni-bird Fiber Optic Cable

The design is of a uni-tube configuration; however, the strength members are parallel steel wires with a single PE sheath. Its strength against rodents and birds makes it a perfect lightweight but sturdy option for aerial or duct applications in outdoor settings.

GYFXTY Anti-Rodent Anti-Birds FRP Wires Uni-tube Fiber Optic Cable

The bundle contains uni-tube fiber optic cable, the inner wires of which consist of FRP (fiber reinforced polymer) and the outer sheath made only out of PE (polyethylene). The uni-tube cable has fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wires and a single PE sheath for strength and protection. Its protection is from rodents and birds with FRP as the alternative for outdoor use installations like aerial or duct.

• GYGXZY04 is unique with its nylon sheath for termite resistance, complementing glass fiber tape for rodent protection, ideal for areas with diverse biological threats.

• GYXTY53 offers the highest durability with double sheathing and steel tape, suited for extreme outdoor conditions.

• GYXTS balances steel tape armor with a single sheath, providing robust protection for standard outdoor use.

• GYXTY and GYFXTY are lighter options, with steel wires and FRP wires respectively, catering to aerial or duct needs; FRP in GYFXTY adds corrosion resistance.

■ Stranded Loose Tube Methods

GYFTA53 Anti-Rodent APL Tape Double Sheath Stranded Loose-tube Fiber Optic Cable

This cable features stranded loose tubes with single-mode or multimode fibers, armored with aluminum tape (APL) for rodent resistance, and protected by a double polyethylene (PE) sheath. It is an out-of-the-box solution for ducts or direct soil installations. Designed with off-roading elements in mind, a cable insulated against rodent and detritus damage is presented.

GYFTA54 Anti-Rodent APL Tape Double Nylon Sheath Stranded Loose-tube Fiber Optic Cable

Just as in the case of APL tape insulation used for rodents, this cable is formed using stranded loose tube. This type of cable has a double covering with one more PE layer inside as well as a nylon outer layer, and it is designed to withstand rodents and termites with high resistance, thus it is suitable for sorts of harsh conditions as ducts or direct ground installation.

GYFTY83-FS Anti-Rodent Flat FRP Tape Stranded Loose-tube Fiber Optic Cable

This cable uses stranded loose tubes that have steel tape as reinforcement instead of fiber-reinforced tape. Its flat profile and single PE sheath makes it a very lightweight option with high potential to be used in outdoor places such as aerial and duct installations, where weather-resistant and corrosion-resistant protection of cables is needed.

GYFTY73: Stranded Loose-tube Fiber Optic Cable with Anti-Rodent Anti-Bird FRP Tape Protection

Double PE sheaths and the addition of stranded loose tubes and FRP tape make for this cable, which provides lengthened life period, even against biological dangers as it’s meant for out-of-doors installations like aerial or duct lines that require non-metallic strength and tremendous protection.

GYFTS: Stranded Loose-tube Fiber Optic Cable with Steel Tape Armor Based on Anti-Rodent and Anti-Bird Behaviour

Stranded loose tubes with a steel tape armor defensible design based on rodent and bird attacks and a single PE sheath. Its strength lies in outdoor ducts and direct burial applications, where it is capable of withstanding stresses with a metallic armor.

• GYFTA53 and GYFTA54 both use APL armor for rodent resistance, with GYFTA54 adding a nylon outer sheath for termite protection, enhancing its suitability for biologically diverse threats.

• GYFTY83-FS and GYFTY73 are based on non-metallic FRP tape, two additional features of GYFTY73 are braving the birds and the increased durability for aerial applications.

• GYFTS is for the superiorly mechanical protection against rodents and birds, suitable for the direct burial rather than duct applications.

■ Special Methods

GJFJKH Indoor Anti-Rodent Steel Hose, Fiber Optic Cable

specially designed to deter rodents and with rodent-repelling functionality. The cable is constructed by tightly buffered fibers (both single-mode and multi-mode) adjoining with the aramid yarns, which give high strength of tension, all these extend inside a flexible hose made of stainless steel, which has the ability to withstand rodent bites, and encased with a sheath LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) to do away with fire. It therefore is an excellent choice for small, harsh environments where volume and size are an issue, for example, in data centers or cabling under buildings, or any places where space is restricted, high reliability is demanded, and where durability is needed.

Feature	GJFJKH
Fiber Type	Single-mode/Multimode
Structure	Tight-Buffered
Strength Member	Aramid Yarns
Armor Type	Stainless Steel Flexible Hose
Sheath	LSZH (Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen)
Protection Against	Rodents
Application	Indoor installations (data centers, buildings)
Key Advantage	Flexible, rodent-resistant, fire-safe
Diameter	2.0 mm - 4.0 mm (varies by fiber count)
Tensile Strength	600 N (long-term) / 1500 N (short-term)
Crush Resistance	1000 N/100mm (long-term) / 2000 N/100mm (short-term)

 

The GJFJKH cable is specified for indoor use, with a durable steel flexible hose for maximum rodent prevention and an LSZH sheath, a fire-safe insulation type, which is the right choice for sensitive environments like computer data centers and existing office buildings.

The aramid yarns have exactly the same tensile strength, whilst the tight-buffered structure is preferred for flexible and the good installation in the limited space.

Its mechanical properties (e.g., tensile strength and crush resistance) show its durability, thus being fit for areas where physical stress or rodents may occur.

These cables are designed for outdoor environments with specific biological protections, varying in armor type and sheath design to meet diverse installation needs. Let me know if you’d like further details!
