Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable
GYDGS
Slotted Core Ribbon Cable, 40-1200 Fibers
Dry-core slotted ribbon cable with very high fiber density, up to 1200 fibers.
Overview
What this cable is built for.
GYDGS holds fiber ribbons in the slots of a central slotted core. It is smaller and lighter than other cables of the same fiber count, or holds more fibers at the same diameter.
The core is fully dry: SAP water-blocking tape replaces icky pick in the tubes and core, so prep and splicing are faster and cleaner, and the cable can be protected by air pressurization.
Key features
- Slotted core ribbon design
- Fully dry core
- SAP water-blocking tape
- High crush and impact resistance
- Up to 1200 fibers
