Central Loose Tube Cables

Being more robust than loose tube cables they are best suited for moderate length lan or wan connections long indoor runs direct burial and for underwater use.

Central loose tube cables.

The design is a central gel filled loose tube of a diameter of 2 8 mm for 2 16 fibers and 3 5 mm for 18 24 fibers. But there are two basic styles of fiber optic cable construction. Their designs utilize 250µm fibers in both central multi loose tube constructions ranging in fiber counts from 2 to 288. Loose tube cables whether flooded under the jacket or water blocked with dry swellable materials protect the fibers from moisture and the long term degradation moisture can cause.

Since the tube does not have direct contact with the fiber any cable material expansion or contraction will not cause stress on the fiber. Rather than using the gel layer loose tube has tight buffered cables have a two layer coating. Fiber optic cable is available in many physical variations such as single and multiple conductor constructions aerial and direct burial styles plenum and riser cables etc. Specially processed and reinforced glass yarns provide the cable s rodent protection sheath.

Loose tube fiber and tight buffered fiber. In cold temperatures the protection keeps water from. R856042 add to wish list remove from wish list. Central loose tube cable contains one tube with 2 24 fi bers which is fi lled with water blocking gel.

Aramid yarn or fi ber glass is wound around the tube to provide physical protection and tensile strength. The gel within the loose tube construction stops the penetration of water and keeps it away from the fiber. Central loose tube fibre optic cable.
