Description

Engineered for harsh outdoor environments, the Steel Wire Armored Fiber Optic Cable provides maximum mechanical protection against high tensile loads, heavy crush forces, and rodent damage. Standardized to ITU-T guidelines, this cable ensures robust optical performance in direct burial, underground duct, and industrial backbone installations.

 

Key Performance Highlights

 

Heavy-Duty Mechanical Defense: High-tensile strength galvanized steel wire armor provides crushing resistance up to 3000N/10cm, making it ideal for direct burial without additional conduit.


Moisture & Corrosion Barrier: Water-blocking yarns and hydrophobic jelly filling prevent longitudinal water penetration under hydrostatic pressure.


Standards-Compliant Optical Fibers: Premium G.652D, G.657A, and OM3/OM4 fibers deliver stable transmission with attenuation down to <=0.35dB/km at 1310nm (Single Mode).


Environmental Jacket Options: UV-stabilized HDPE outer jacket for direct burial; Flame-retardant LSZH outer jacket meeting IEC 60332-1 burn specifications for tunnel and indoor/outdoor transitions.

FAQ

 

Q: What installation method is recommended for Steel Wire Armored (SWA) cables?

A: SWA cables are engineered for direct burial, deep underground ducts, and high-risk industrial pathways where extreme mechanical pressure or rodent activity is present.

Q: What is the main structural difference between SWA and STA (Steel Tape Armored) cables?

A: SWA uses round galvanized steel wires providing superior tensile strength for long pulling spans and vertical installations, whereas STA uses flat steel tape which offers crush protection but lower tensile resistance.

Q: How is water entry prevented inside the cable?

A: The cable utilizes a dual protection strategy: water-blocking compound inside loose tubes and dry water-swellable yarns between stranded components to stop water migration.

Q: Are your fiber optic cables compliant with international standards?

A: Yes, all cables are manufactured and tested in strict accordance with IEC 60794, ITU-T G.652/G.657, and ISO 9001 quality management benchmarks.

Q: What jacket material should be selected for high-UV outdoor applications?

A: HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) is recommended for direct exposure to sunlight and soil chemicals due to its superior UV stability and moisture resistance.

Q: Can I request specific optical fiber brands for large-scale telecom projects?

A: Yes, we support client-specified fiber brands including Corning, YOFC, and FiberHome, accompanied by original raw material certification.

Q: What test reports are shipped with the cable drums?

A: Each drum comes with a factory OTDR test report detailing attenuation values at key wavelengths, along with an official Certificate of Conformity (CoC).

Q: What packaging precautions are taken for long-distance sea freight?

A: Cable reels are packed in export-standard fumigated wooden or steel-wooden drums with waterproof wrapping, end caps sealed, and heat-shrinkable protective covers applied.
