Bulk Fiber Cable Customization Options

1. What is the difference between GYTS and GYTA fiber optic cable?

The primary difference is the armor material. GYTS uses corrugated steel tape armor, which provides higher crush resistance and mechanical protection, while GYTA uses aluminum tape and is generally lighter in weight. GYTS is often preferred where additional physical protection is required.

2. Is GYTS suitable for direct burial installation?

Standard GYTS is mainly designed for aerial and duct installations. For direct burial applications, cables such as GYTS53 or GYTY53 with additional protective layers and double-sheath structures are generally recommended.

3. Why are fibers placed inside loose tubes instead of tight buffers?

The loose tube design isolates fibers from external mechanical stress and temperature fluctuations. This helps maintain stable optical performance in outdoor environments and reduces attenuation caused by cable expansion or contraction.

4. What is the purpose of the steel tape armor?

The steel tape layer improves crush resistance, rodent protection, and overall mechanical durability, helping the cable withstand harsh outdoor installation conditions.

5. Can this cable be used in humid or rainy environments?

Yes. GYTS cables include water-blocking compounds and moisture-resistant construction that help prevent water ingress and protect the fibers during long-term outdoor operation.
