Non-metallic stranded loose tube outdoor fiber optic cable with a non-metallic central strength member for duct and aerial installations with external support, subject to final cable design.
GYFTY is an outdoor stranded loose tube fiber optic cable designed for routes requiring a non-metallic central strength member and standard outdoor cable construction. A typical structure includes filled loose tubes, a stranded loose tube cable core around a non-metallic central strength member, water-blocking materials, and a PE outer sheath. Fiber type, fiber count, tube layout, sheath material, and mechanical performance must be confirmed against the final cable design and project requirements.

What is GYFTY fiber optic cable?
GYFTY is a non-metallic stranded loose tube outdoor fiber optic cable. It uses a non-metallic central strength member, subject to final cable design, for duct and supported aerial routes where this construction is specified.

| Model | Cable Structure | Metallic / Non-Metallic | Typical Application & Selection Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| GYFTY | Stranded loose tube, non-metallic; FRP central strength member | Non-metallic central strength member; confirm final construction | Duct and aerial-lashed routes where non-metallic central strength member construction is specified. Exact structure depends on project requirements. |
| GYFXTY | Central loose tube, non-metallic | All-dielectric — no metallic components | Compact outdoor cable for duct and supported aerial routes where compact dielectric cable is needed. Confirm exact structure by project. |
| GYTS | Stranded loose tube, metallic armor | Steel tape / PSP armored — contains metallic components | Outdoor duct, backbone, metro access networks requiring crush and rodent protection. Not all-dielectric; choose when steel armor is required. |
| ADSS | Self-supporting all-dielectric; no metallic components | All-dielectric — self-supporting design for aerial spans | Aerial installations between utility poles or towers. Span length and sheath selection depend on project requirements. |
Final cable selection depends on project-specific requirements. Unconfirmed specifications should be confirmed with the manufacturer before ordering.
