They protect the fiber core cladding and coating by enclosing everything within semi rigid protective sleeves or tubes.
Cables loose tube.
Fiber loose tube cable belden s loose tube cables are ideal for both outdoor indoor outdoor applications including use in conduit direct burial lashed aerial trunking.
Since the tube does not have direct contact with the fiber any cable material expansion or contraction will not cause stress on the fiber.
Cables that are on the outside are continuously stressed by a plurality of environmental conditions that could affect their integrity and performance.
The gel within the loose tube construction stops the penetration of water and keeps it away from the fiber.
Loose tube cables hexatronic s loose tube cables provide superior mechanical protection easy handling and reliable performance.
Loose tube cables are designed for harsh environment conditions in the outdoors.
They protect the fibercore cladding and coatingby enclosing everything within fairly rigid protective sleeves or tubes.
Loose tube cables whether flooded under the jacket or water blocked with dry swellable materials protect the fibers from moisture and the long term degradation moisture can cause.
Their designs utilize 250µm fibers in both central multi loose tube constructions ranging in fiber counts from 2 to 288.
The gel within the loose tube construction stops the penetration of water and keeps it away from the fiber.

Loose tube cables whether flooded under the jacket or water blocked with dry swellable materials protect the fibers from moisture and the long term degradation moisture can cause.
Loose tube cables loose tube cables the older of the two cable types are specifically designed for harsh outdoor environments.
Loose tube fiber this type of cable is designed for the outdoors.
In loose tube cables the coated fiber floats within a rugged abrasion resistant oversized tube which is filled with optical gel.
