Product Description
|
| This cable has been designed for Aerial applications and provides solutions for areas where the permission of digging from civic authorities is difficult and the areas where the laying of underground cables is difficult, it also provides immediate solution for restoration of communications without waiting for formal permission of digging and laying of underground cables. This Aerial type Fiber Cable is designed for easy and economical installation with High Tensile Strength to overcome wind pressures and ice loadings.
Our stranded loose tube design provides stable performance over a wide temperature range and is compatible with any telecommunications-grade optical fiber.
The stranded loose tubes contain thixotropic jelly but the cable core is based on dry-block construction. Incorporation of Dry Water Block Technology eliminates the need for traditional jelly filled water blocking methods, thus providing efficient and craft-friendly cable installation.
The thixotropic jelly is used to fill the buffer tubes to prevent water ingress. Length markings in meters for easy determination of cable length. Extra Strength cable can also be delivered by providing Armoring to the Cable. |
