LOOSE TUBE 12F

  • Loose tube provides one of the most basic protecting layers for the fibers.
  • Each loose tube comprises of 12 optical fibers with filled jelly compound for prevention of water ingress.
  • The loose tubes are stranded around a central strength member giving more mechanical strength to the cable.
  • Aramid yarns contribute to better mechanical strength without losing the cables' flexibility.
  • Water Blocking Tape is used for further prevention of penetration of water Armoring.
  • Armored, Fire-retardant, UV resistance, anti-rodent features can be designed as according to applications.
  • The Loose Tube Duct Cable applicable for duct purposes within subscriber loop, junction, long-haul communication.
