Non-Metallic Type Fiber Optics Cable
Application
Non-metallic cable used for power line transmission system or wayside , excessive thunder areas and high electromagnetic interface. Its mainly application is for aerial or duct use.
Construction
Non-Metallic Loose Tube Type Fiber Optics Cable
1Outer sheath
2Ripcord & Water blocking element
3Peripheral strength element-Aramid yarn
4Loose tube
5Colour fibers
6Center strength member(CSM)- FRP rod, with oversheathing when needed
Property
- CSM: Glass fiber reinforced plastic rod(FRP) with oversheathing or water blocking element wrapping could provide efficient tension and anti-water function for cable.
- Loose Tube: 6 or 12 fibers per PBT loose tube and filled with a suitable jelly compound.
- Filler:Thermoplastic rods, where needed.
- Stranding:Loose tubes (and filler), SZ stranded around the CSM.
- Longitudinal water tightness : (Option)
- Peripheral Strength Element: Aramid yarns is used.
- Water Blocking Element: Could be used by requirement(Option).
- Ripcord:Nylon thread or Aramid yarn for easily stripping of the sheath.
- Outer sheath: Black polyethelene
The cable is water blocking by using petroleum jelly.
Water blocking element used for eliminates the need for traditional flooding compound and provides efficient and craft-friendly cable preparation.
