Single Mode Fiber
GYFTY-96
Phoslinc All-Dielectric Outdoor Optical Cable
Stranded loose tube, gel-filled construction around an FRP central strength member. No metal anywhere in the cable.
Overview
What this cable is built for
GYFTY-96 carries 96 G.652.D single-mode fibers in 8 PBT loose tubes of 12 fibers each. The tubes are filled with jelly and stranded around an FRP central strength member with a PE cushion layer, so the cable is fully non-metallic.
Cable gel and water blocking tape keep water out of the core, and two ripcords make the black HDPE outer sheath quick to open. The finished cable is 0.50 in (12.8 mm) across, weighs about 90 lb/kft (134 kg/km), and is supplied in 9,843 ft (3 km) drums.
