Introduction
Features and benefits
This cable has been custom designed to best match
with customer requirements from optical, electrical,
mechanical, quality and cost point of view,
optimizing diameter, weight, breaking load and
short circuit capacity.
Optical core is made of optical fibers [1] covered by
one or more loose buffer tubes [2] that leave the
fibers free from strain even at highest operating
loads.
In sections where there is a high contamination or
in the proximity of the sea, Prysmian recommend
greasing the cable.
A Prysmian patented hydrogen absorbent jelly [3] is
used to protect optical fibers from hydrogen attack.
The aluminum tube [4] provides the cable with:
high short circuit capacity minimizing material
best solution to avoid cable corrosion
a perfect sealing for the optical core
a high crush resistance
