Product introduction

figure 8 optic fiber cable

GYTC8Y optic fiber cable is an figure 8 self-supporting outdoor optic fiber cable for communication. It involves inserting the optical fiber into PBT loose tube; The central reinforcement of the cable core is steel wire (a layer of PE cushion layer needs to be extruded for large core structural optical cables); The loose tube and filling rope are twisted around the central reinforcement using SZ twisting method; Fill the gaps inside the cable core with water-resistant compounds to prevent moisture from seeping in; A layer of polyethylene sheath is extruded outside the cable to protect the internal structure of the optic fiber cable; The suspension wire adopts steel stranded wire and is wrapped with a layer of polyethylene sheath, which is connected to the cable with a sling to form an figure 8 self-supporting structure.

Application of GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable


GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable is mainly used in outdoor communication environments, especially in self-supporting overhead laying scenarios.


◆ Outdoor communication


GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable, as an outdoor optical cable for communication, is suitable for various outdoor environments, including but not limited to urban streets, suburbs, mountainous areas, etc.


◆ Self supporting overhead laying


Due to its unique 8-shaped self-supporting structure, GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable is particularly suitable for overhead laying. This structure allows the optical cable to maintain a stable suspension state without the need for additional supports during installation, thereby reducing construction difficulty and costs.


◆ Crossing complex terrains


The strong tensile strength, waterproof and UV resistant characteristics of GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable enable it to easily cross complex terrains such as rivers and valleys, ensuring the stability and reliability of communication networks.


◆Core network, metropolitan area network, and access network


GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable is not only suitable for access networks, but also for higher-level communication networks such as core networks and metropolitan area networks, meeting different levels of communication needs.

In summary, GYTC8Y figure 8 optic fiber cable has a wide range of application prospects in the field of outdoor communication due to its unique self-supporting structure and strong performance advantages.


How to install and maintain GYTC8Y figure 8 fiber optic cable



1. Install GYTC8Y Figure 8 optic fiber cable



◆ Figure 8 optic fiber cable preparation


Confirm that the model, specifications, and length of the optical cable meet the design requirements.

Check the appearance of the optical cable to ensure that there is no damage, breakage, or deformation.


◆ Figure 8 optic fiber cable laying


Choose the appropriate laying method based on the laying environment, such as overhead laying, and ensure the tensile strength and stability of the optical cable.

Use professional laying tools and equipment, such as suspension cables, pulleys, etc., to ensure that the optical cable is not damaged during the laying process.

Lay according to the design requirements for routing and height, ensuring that the direction and height of the optical cable meet the standards.


◆Figure 8 optic fiber cable connection


Use professional fiber optic connectors and splicing tools to connect where optical cables are needed.

Clean the fiber end face to ensure there are no impurities such as dust or oil stains, and then use a fiber cutting knife to cut the fiber end face to ensure it is flat.

Insert the fiber optic cable into the connector, ensuring that the end face of the fiber optic cable aligns with the inner hole of the connector, and secure the connector in place.


◆Figure 8 optic fiber cable fixation and protection


Use professional fasteners and protective covers to secure the optical cable to brackets, suspension cables, or walls, ensuring the stability and safety of the cable.

In places that are susceptible to external impact or wear, protective covers or shields should be installed to protect the optical cable from damage.


2. Maintain GYTC8Y Figure 8 optic fiber cable



◆ Regular inspection


Regularly inspect the appearance of optical cables to check for any damage, breakage, deformation, or wear.

Check the joint part of the optical cable to ensure that the connection is firm, without looseness or detachment.


◆ Cleaning and maintenance


Regularly clean the surface of the optical cable, remove impurities such as dust and oil, and keep the cable clean and dry.

For exposed optical cables, special attention should be paid to preventing rainwater, snow, and other water from entering the interior of the cable and causing damage to the optical fibers.


◆ Performance monitoring


Regularly monitor the performance of optical cables, such as optical power testing, attenuation testing, etc., to ensure that the transmission performance of optical cables meets design requirements.

If any abnormal or decreased performance of the optical cable is found, it should be dealt with and replaced in a timely manner.


◆ Fault handling


If any faults or damages are found in the optical cable, immediate repair or replacement should be carried out to ensure the normal operation of the communication system.

When repairing or replacing optical cables, it is necessary to strictly follow the operating procedures to ensure operational safety and cable quality.
