Product Structure

GYXTS central loose tube steel tape armored fiber optic cable structure

GYXTS is a central loose tube outdoor fiber optic cable with steel tape armoring and PE sheath protection. It is designed for duct, outdoor access, and buried routes that require compact cable diameter with enhanced mechanical protection.

  • Central loose tubeOptical fibers are placed inside a central loose tube with filling compound or water-blocking design according to project requirements.
  • Steel tape armorPSP steel tape armor improves crush resistance and protects the cable in duct and buried installation environments.
  • PE outer sheathBlack PE sheath provides outdoor environmental protection and long-term route durability.

Model Comparison: GYXTS vs Other Outdoor Fiber Cables

Compare GYXTS with related central loose tube and stranded loose tube outdoor cable designs before confirming project requirements.

GYXTS

Structure: Central loose tube outdoor fiber optic cable with steel tape protection and PE sheath.

Typical Use: Duct, outdoor access, feeder, and aerial-lashed routes requiring compact structure and steel tape protection.

Selection Note: Choose GYXTS when compact central tube design and steel tape protection are required for lower fiber-count routes.

GYXTW

Structure: Central loose tube outdoor cable with corrugated steel tape armor.

Typical Use: Access and distribution routes requiring compact cable diameter and enhanced mechanical protection.

Selection Note: Use GYXTW when the project specification calls for its exact corrugated steel tape structure.

GYXTY

Structure: Central loose tube non-armored outdoor cable with PE sheath.

Typical Use: Economical duct, access, and aerial-lashed routes where steel tape armor is not required.

Selection Note: Choose GYXTY when non-armored central tube cable is sufficient for the route conditions.

GYTS

Structure: Stranded loose tube outdoor cable with steel tape protection.

Typical Use: Outdoor backbone and trunk routes requiring higher fiber counts than central loose tube designs.

Selection Note: Use GYTS when the project needs stranded loose tube layout or higher fiber-count capacity.

FAQ About GYXTS Outdoor Central Loose Tube Steel Tape Armored Fiber Optic Cable

Q: What is the difference between GYXTS and GYXTW?
GYXTS is commonly associated with central loose tube construction and steel tape / steel-polyethylene composite protection, while GYXTW is a central tube cable with parallel steel wire reinforcement. Final structures may vary by project and manufacturer.
Q: What fiber counts does GYXTS support?
GYXTS commonly supports 2-12 cores due to the central tube design, subject to final cable configuration. For higher fiber counts, stranded loose tube cables such as GYTS or GYTA may be more suitable.
Q: Is GYXTS suitable for direct burial?
Standard GYXTS is designed for duct and aerial-lashed installation. For direct burial or high mechanical load environments, double-armored cables such as GYTA53 or GYTY53 are recommended.
Q: What fiber types are available with GYXTS?
GYXTS can be supplied with G.652D, G.657A1, G.657A2, or other fiber types per project requirement.
Q: Can sheath marking and drum length be customized?
Yes. Fiber type, fiber count, sheath material, cable marking, drum length, armor structure, and outer sheath color can all be customized per project requirements. Please confirm your specific requirements with the project datasheet.
Q: Is GYXTS a self-supporting aerial cable?
No. GYXTS is not an ADSS or Figure-8 self-supporting cable. If used in aerial routes, external support or lashing should be confirmed according to the installation design.
