1. General
Non-Armored Uni-Tube optical cable with fibers placed in loose
buffer tube.The cable core is protected with jelly to prevent water
intrusion and migration, and cover with a black polyethylene out
jacket. Two embedded FRP or metallic wire provide desire tension.
The cable consists of a central loose tube, filled with a synthetic
oil based jelly, non-nutritive to fungus, electrically
non-conductive, homogeneous and free from dirt and foreign matter,
containing up to 12 optical fibres.Two Fiber Reinforced Plastics
(FRP) elements are longitudinally applied parallel with the tube,
and an outer black PE sheath, UV resistant.
Characteristic
1. Small size, Low cost.
2. the fiber counts is up to 24 fibers.
3. Uni-tube gel-filled construction for superior fiber protection.
4. Two parallel FRP wire and overall glass yarn to enhance tensile
resistant.
5. And protect cable from mechanical damage.
6. Designed for use with inexpensive attachment hardware.
7. Self-supported no messenger needed.
