Pareto Cable’s GYTC8A Figure 8 Multi-Tube Light Armored Aerial Self-Supporting Fiber Cable is a high-performance, self-supporting fiber optic cable designed for efficient and reliable outdoor installations. This innovative cable combines advanced materials and construction techniques to deliver exceptional performance in various environmental conditions.

Key Features

  • Loose Tube Design: Each 250µm fiber is housed in a high-modulus plastic loose tube filled with water-resistant compound for optimal protection.  
  • Central Strength Member: A robust central strength member provides structural integrity and supports the cable core.  
  • Compact Cable Core: Loose tubes and fillers are tightly stranded around the central strength member for a compact and circular cable core.  
  • Moisture Barrier: An aluminum polyethylene laminate (APL) moisture barrier effectively protects the cable core from water ingress.  
  • Self-Supporting Design: Integrated stranded wires provide the necessary tensile strength for self-support, eliminating the need for additional support structures.
  • Figure 8 Configuration: The unique figure 8 shape enhances the cable’s ability to withstand wind and ice loads.

This cable is engineered to excel in demanding outdoor environments, offering superior mechanical strength, water resistance, and long-term reliability. Ideal for aerial installations, it provides a cost-effective and efficient solution for telecommunication networks.
