GYFTY53 underground armored fiber optic cable 4 core to 144 core

GYFTY53 fiber optic cable, , 250μm, are positioned in a loose tube made of a high modulus plastics. The tubes are filled with a water-resistant filling compound. A fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) locates in the center of core as a non-metallic strength member. The tubes (and filler) are stranded around the strength member into a compact and circular core. Then the cable core is covered with a thin polyethylene (PE) inner sheath, which is filled with jelly to protect it from water ingress. A layer of water-blocking material is applied around the cable core to prevent water ingress all the same. After a corrugated steel tape armor is applied. the cable is completed with a PE outer sheath.
