2017-03-09

Definition of GYTC8Y Fiber Optic Cable

GYTC8Y Fiber Optic Cable is 8-like type of fiber optic cable that is made of a high modulus plastic.  You can get GYTC8Y Fiber Optic Cable in two different forms which include; single mode and Multimode fiber.  This type of fiber is widely used in watery areas because it’s a water-resistant cable.  Additionally, it has a layer of steel wire that offers it the necessary support.

Technical Characteristics of GYTC8Y Fiber Optic Cable

Low dispersion and attenuation;

Proper design, precise control for fiber excess length and distinct stranding process render the cable excellent mechanical and environmental properties;

Compact structure and lightness, flexible and good Bend-resistant performance;

With small cable diameter, light cable weight, self-supporting;

Self-Supporting Aerial Application Outdoor GYTC8Y fiber optic cable;

Selected high quality optical fiber ensure the optical fiber cable have excellent transmission properties;

The unique fiber excess length control method provides the cable with excellent mechanical and environmental properties Very strict material and manufacturing control, guarantees the cable can work stably for more than 30 years;

Total cross-section water-resistant structure makes cable have excellent properties of moisture resistance;

Special jelly filled in the loose tube provides the fibers with critical protection;

Figure-8 self-supporting structure, high tension;
