We insert single-mode or multi-mode fiber into a loose tube made from high modulus polyester material and filled with water proof compounds. The center of the cable core is a metallic strength core. For the cables with a certain number of cores, the metallic strength core sheathed with polyethylene (PE). The buffer tuber (and filling rope) is twisted around the central strength core to form a compact circular core, whose cracks are filled with water blocking materials. An extruded polyethylene sheath is inserted into the cable after the aluminum polyethylene laminate is vertically wrapped.
Application of Stranded Loose Tube Armored Cable (GYTA)The stranded loose tube armored cable is suitable for Long distance and interoffice communication.
