UNDERWATER FIBRE OPTIC CABLE

The underwater fiber optic cable is engineered for installation in freshwater environments such as lakes and rivers, at depths ranging from 100 to 250 meters. Its robust construction includes a PE outer sheath, steel wire armour, and aluminium tape for enhanced mechanical protection and pressure resistance. The cable integrates multiple water-blocking components, including water-blocking yarn and tape, along with filling gel in the loose tubes to prevent moisture ingress. A central strength member ensures structural stability, while the PE inner sheath adds an extra layer of protection. This design is optimized for submerged applications in inland water bodies and is not suitable for saltwater or coastal marine environments. This cable can also be used for normal direct-buried applications.
