Hone GYXTC8Y Unitube Non-Armored Aerial Figure 8 Fiber Optic Cable
The Hone GYXTC8Y aerial fiber optic cable is a non-armored, unitube cable designed for outdoor aerial installations. Its figure-8 design incorporates a central loose tube and a stranded wire self-supporting component.
Description
The Hone GYXTC8Y aerial fiber optic cable is a non-armored unitube cable featuring a stranded wire for self-support. The cable comprises a central loose tube containing up to 2-24 optical fibers, making it an ideal choice for outdoor aerial deployments. Its compact size, light weight, and flexibility facilitate ease of installation, positioning it as a viable option for FTTH cabling networks.
Application
This cable is suitable for various applications, including:
- Core networks
- Metropolitan area networks (MANs)
- Access networks
- FTTH feeder and distribution networks
Features
- Small diameter and figure-8 structure for easy handling and deployment.
- Simplified installation with the self-supporting figure-8 aerial fiber cable design.
- Excellent mechanical and temperature performance.
- High-strength, hydrolysis-resistant loose tube for fiber protection.
- Medium-density/high-density polyethylene jacket for durability and low-friction installation.
- Complete cable filling with CSM (presumably Cable Sheath Material) and tube filling compound, along with APL (Aluminum Polyethylene Laminate) moisture barrier, to ensure watertightness.
