Cables
with stranded loose tubes represent the fiber optic
design which is most frequently used all over the world
and can certainly be referred to as the standard cable
type. Beyond the mechanical properties stemming from
stranding, such as flexibility, it also provides the
optical fibers with the clearance necessary to protect
them from external loads. TFOC's loose tube fiber optic
cables are specially designed to provide a stress-free
environment for the fiber when install/operation within
their designed load and temperature range.The following
cable construction outlined here are our most popular
fiber optic cable construction;
Design
/ Overview
The
cross-section of the dielectric single sheath cable
is shown below. Dielectric strand elements are stranded
about the cable core. A High-Density Polyethylene sheath
is extruded about the cable core and strength elements.
