Custom Outdoor Optical Fiber Optic Cables Manufacturers

How to design outdoor optical cables to meet the tensile and pressure resistance requirements of the outdoor environment?

Material selection and structural design
1. High-strength aramid fiber reinforced core
Suzhou TeRuiTong Communication Co., Ltd. first uses high-strength aramid fiber (such as Kevlar) as the reinforcing core in the design of outdoor optical cables. Aramid fiber is known for its extremely high tensile strength and good fatigue resistance. It can effectively resist external pulling forces, such as wind, ice load or human drag, ensuring that optical cables can remain stable in extreme weather and complex environments. . By accurately calculating the required tensile strength of the outdoor fiber optic cables and selecting the appropriate aramid fiber specifications and quantity, the strength of the optical cable is ensured while the overall weight is controlled, making construction and maintenance easier.
2. Double-layer sheath structure
In order to improve the pressure resistance of the outdoor optical cable, the company adopts a double-layer sheath design. The inner sheath is usually made of polyethylene (PE) or low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant material (LSZH), which not only provides basic mechanical protection and moisture-proof functions, but also effectively isolates the direct impact of the external environment on the optical fiber. The outer sheath is made of harder materials, such as polyurethane (PU) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), to further enhance the cable's pressure resistance, wear resistance and aging resistance. The combination of double-layer sheath not only ensures the flexibility and flexibility of the optical cable, but also greatly improves its outdoor survivability.
Special processes and technical applications
1. Loose tube structure design
Inside the optical cable, a loose tube structure design is used between the optical fiber and the reinforcing core. This design allows the optical cable to have a certain buffer space when it is subjected to external forces, preventing the optical fiber from being damaged due to direct force. The loose tube structure can also effectively reduce the impact of temperature changes on the internal stress of the optical cable and improve the environmental adaptability of the outdoor fiber optic wire.
2. Waterproof sealing technology
In view of the changeable and moisture-prone outdoor environment, Suzhou TeRuiTong adopts advanced waterproof sealing technology, such as heat-shrinkable casing, gel filling or special waterproof tape, etc., to ensure complete sealing of optical cable ends and joints, effectively preventing Moisture intrusion prolongs the service life of optical cables.
3. Anti-UV aging treatment
Outdoor optical cables are exposed to sunlight for a long time, and long-term exposure to ultraviolet rays will accelerate material aging. Therefore, the company performs anti-UV aging treatment on the outer sheath materials of all outdoor fiber optic wires. By adding specific anti-UV additives or using special formula materials, the weather resistance of the sheaths is significantly improved to ensure long-term stable operation of optical cables outdoors.
