External Mini Loose Tube Optical Cable with Sacrificial Sheath – Australia

This loose tube dielectric optical cable is designed for external underground installations in (micro) ducts by pulling, blowing or floating techniques. Polyamide provides anti-termite protection.

Made up of a multi-loose tube construction – single layer 2 to 144 fibers, the tube is made of a thermoplastic material, containing up to 12 optical fibers filled with a low viscosity, thixotropic, non-melting gel fully compatible with fiber coating and tube material, a glass GRP strength member with or without over-sheathing, the required numbers of elements (tubes and fillers) are SZ stranded around the central strength member and there are water swellable elements (dry-core) providing longitudinal water tightness. The sheath is made up of polyethylene in compliance with AS 1049. The sheath has two ripcords provided beneath for easy removal. The hard jacket is a UV stabilized polyamide (Nylon) in compliance with AS 1049 integrally bonded to PE sheath. Outside the hard jacket is a UV stabilized polyethylene sacrificial sheath, in compliance with AS 1049.

Available only in Australia.
