All-dielectric self-supporting optical cable ADSS (GYFTCY)
ADSS optical cable (GYFTCY) adopts a stranded loose tube structure, placing 250μm optical fibers into a loose tube made of high-modulus material, and the loose tube is filled with a waterproof compound. The loose tubes (and fillers) are stranded around a non-metallic central strength member (FRP) into a compact cable core, and the gaps in the cable core are filled with water-blocking grease. A polyethylene (PE) inner sheath is extruded outside the cable core, then aramid yarn for reinforcement is stranded, and finally a polyethylene (PE) outer sheath or a tracking-resistant (AT) outer sheath is extruded.
