Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable Solutions
Different outdoor network environments require different cable structures. Our product range allows buyers to select the appropriate construction based on installation method, mechanical requirements, span length and environmental conditions.
ASU Fiber Optic Cable:ASU cables use a loose-tube structure with FRP strength members and are commonly considered for aerial and access-network installations where lightweight construction is important.
ADSS Fiber Optic Cable:All-Dielectric Self-Supporting cable is designed for aerial installation without a metallic messenger. Different mechanical designs can be developed for span length and installation conditions.
GYFTZY Fiber Optic Cable:A non-metallic loose-tube construction using FRP as the central strength member, suitable for applications requiring a lightweight and dielectric cable structure.
GYDTA Fiber Optic Cable:Armored fiber optic construction designed for applications where additional mechanical protection is required.

Built for Outdoor Network Conditions
Outdoor fiber optic cables need to maintain optical performance while exposed to environmental and mechanical stresses.

Weather & UV Protection:Outdoor-rated PE or HDPE jackets can provide protection against sunlight, moisture and changing weather conditions.
Water Blocking:Loose tubes, filling compounds and water-blocking materials can be incorporated into cable designs to reduce the risk of moisture migration.
Mechanical Protection:Depending on the cable type, FRP, steel strength members or armored structures can provide additional tensile and mechanical protection.
Temperature Resistance:Outdoor cable designs can be specified for a wide operating temperature range to support deployment in different climatic environments.
Long-Distance Transmission:Fiber optic transmission provides high bandwidth and low attenuation over long distances while being resistant to electromagnetic interference.
Flexible Installation:Different cable structures support aerial, duct and direct-buried installation, allowing buyers to select a design appropriate for the project environment.
Outdoor fiber optic cables are used across communication and infrastructure networks where reliable long-distance optical transmission is required.
Telecommunications:For backbone, access, distribution and regional communication networks.
FTTH & FTTx:For fiber access networks connecting residential, commercial and community users.
Data & Communication Infrastructure:For interconnection between network facilities, equipment rooms and distributed infrastructure.
Power Networks:OPGW and other specialized fiber cable solutions can support communication requirements in power transmission systems.
Transportation
For railway, highway and intelligent transportation communication infrastructure.
Industrial Networks
For communication networks deployed across factories, industrial parks, utilities and remote facilities.
Rural & Long-Distance Networks
For communication infrastructure in areas where long aerial spans, environmental exposure or difficult terrain must be considered.
How to Select the Right Outdoor Fiber Cable?
Selecting an outdoor fiber optic cable should start with the installation environment rather than the product name.
Aerial Installation:For overhead deployment, buyers should consider span length, wind loading, ice loading, tensile strength, cable weight and supporting structure. ADSS, ASU and Figure-8 constructions can be evaluated according to project requirements.
Duct Installation:For ducted networks, cable diameter, pulling tension, crush resistance, bending performance and water protection are important considerations.
Direct-Buried Installation:Direct-buried projects require stronger mechanical protection and appropriate water-blocking construction. Armored cable structures such as GYTS53 can be considered where the installation conditions require additional protection.
Power Infrastructure:For power transmission projects, OPGW combines optical communication with overhead grounding functionality and should be selected according to the electrical and mechanical requirements of the transmission line.

Manufacturing
Consistent cable performance depends on controlled materials, accurate production processes and systematic testing.Our manufacturing process covers the key stages from fiber preparation and cable construction to sheath extrusion, testing and final packaging.
Fiber & Material Preparation
Optical fibers, strength members, loose tubes, filling materials and jacket materials are prepared according to the confirmed cable design.


Fiber Coloring & Loose Tube Production
Optical fibers are processed and positioned within the loose-tube structure according to the required cable configuration.
Stranding & Strength Member Assembly
Loose tubes and strength members are assembled to form the specified cable structure, such as stranded, ADSS or other constructions.


Sheath Extrusion
The outer PE or HDPE jacket is applied according to the specified cable dimensions and protection requirements.
Optical & Mechanical Testing
Finished cable is tested according to applicable product requirements, including relevant optical and mechanical performance parameters.


Final Inspection & Packaging
Cable dimensions, appearance, marking, drum quantity and packaging are checked before the finished products are released for shipment.
Quality Assurance

For infrastructure projects, cable quality needs to remain consistent across production batches. Our quality control approach covers both incoming materials and finished cable performance.
Raw Material Control:Key materials are checked before production to ensure they match the confirmed product requirements.
Dimensional Inspection:Cable diameter, jacket thickness and other dimensional parameters are checked during production.
Optical Performance Testing:Optical characteristics are tested according to the applicable product specification and project requirements.
Mechanical Testing:Relevant tensile, crush and other mechanical properties are evaluated according to the cable structure and applicable standards.
Environmental Performance:Where applicable, water-blocking, temperature and other environmental performance requirements can be evaluated according to the specified product standard.
Final Product Inspection:Finished cable is inspected for appearance, marking, dimensions, optical performance and packaging before shipment.
