GYXTW Central Loose Tube Fiber Optic Cable

Compact, lightweight, and cost-effective, the GYXTW cable is designed for access networks and building-to-building connections. Featuring a steel-tape armor and dual steel wires, it offers reliable protection in a small diameter profile.

Application

Ideal for residential access (FTTH), local area networks (LAN), and campus backbone wiring. Suitable for installation in small ducts or aerial environments.

Characteristics

  • Dual Steel Wires: Two parallel steel wires provide the necessary tensile strength.
  • Compact Diameter: Small size makes it easy to handle and install in tight spaces.
  • Water Blocking: Water-blocking tape prevents longitudinal water penetration.

Certifications

-CE, RoHS, compliant with ITU-T G.652 standards.

GYXTW Fiber Optic Cable Constructions

Component Material/Properties Details
Optical Fiber High-purity Silica Glass Single-mode (e.g., G.652D) or Multi-mode.
Typically 2 to 24 cores.
Central Loose Tube PBT Material Positioned in the exact center of the cable. Tubes are filled with a water-blocking thixotropic jelly to protect the fibers.
Water Blocking Water-blocking tape/yarn Wrapped around the loose tube to provide excellent longitudinal resistance to water penetration.
Armor PSP (Corrugated Steel Tape) Wrapped longitudinally around the loose tube. Provides outstanding crush resistance and acts as a barrier against rodents.
Strength Member Two parallel steel wires Embedded symmetrically within the polyethylene outer jacket to provide robust tensile strength.
Outer Jacket MDPE or HDPE (Medium/High-Density Polyethylene) Black, UV-resistant, and highly weather-resistant. Protects the internal components from external environmental factors.
