Moisture-proof index of optical cable sheath

FIBRE OPTIC CABLES

Specific tests, according to international standard, can be performed in our laboratory to certify torsion, traction, compression, bending, impact and water penetration resistance of fibre optic cables.

GB/T 13849-2025 PDF English

Communication cables with copper core, polyolefin insulation, moisture barrier layer, and polyolefin sheath of 1MHz or below are used in communication systems of power plants, factories,

072EC5-14100D53 | SST-Ribbon Single-Tube, Gel-Free, Armored Cable

The cable is jacketed with a black UV-resistant polyethylene sheath. The 12-fiber ribbons have readily identifiable ribbon IDs and fiber colors and geometries that result in excellent mass-splicing yields.

Development of flame retardant and fire-resistant optical cable

Double armor layers and double sheath layers can immensely facilitate the optical cable to resist crush and impact, so the optical cable can pass the mechanical performance.
