Air blown cable

The air-blown cable is small in size and light in weight. It is suitable for air-blown installations. It is easy to install and saves pipeline resources.

Product Description

Air blown cables are made by inserting single-mode optical fibers into micro-loose tubes made of high-modulus polyester material (PBT), with waterproof compounds filled inside the tubes. Non-metallic strength members are used at the center of the optical cable. The micro-loose tubes (and possible filling ropes) are twisted around the central strength member to form a compact circular cable core. High-performance dry water-blocking materials are used inside the cable core to block water. Finally, a layer of polyethylene sheath is extruded to form the cable.

Product Advantages

It can effectively alleviate the tension of pipeline resources caused by the expansion of communication pipe networks within cities.
It can be constructed and laid in sections, with fast air-blowing speed, long laying distance and high construction efficiency.
The sheath can adopt high-performance and low-friction sheath materials and a semi-dry structure design to meet the application requirements of different scenarios.
