Product Description

Figure 8 Fiber Optic Cable

Figure 8 Aerial Fiber Optic Cable

Our Figure 8 Aerial Fiber Optic Cable is engineered for efficient and reliable outside plant (OSP) deployments. Its unique, self-supporting "figure 8" design integrates a robust messenger wire with the fiber optic unit into a single, cohesive cable. This construction eliminates the need for a separate lashing wire, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs.

Ideal for aerial applications such as Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks, backbone distribution, and long-span aerial links, this cable is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including wind, ice, and temperature variations.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Integrated Self-Supporting Design: High-strength steel or dielectric messenger allows for direct installation on poles.
  • Mechanical & Environmental Protection: Corrugated Steel Tape (CST) armor or PE sheath offers superior crush and UV resistance.
  • High Fiber Count: Available from 2 to 288 cores to meet diverse capacity requirements.
  • All-Dielectric Option: ADSS version available for installations near high-voltage lines.
  • Superior Performance: High-quality fibers guarantee low signal attenuation and high bandwidth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Figure 8 fiber optic cable?
It is a type of self-supporting aerial cable where the fiber unit and a steel or FRP messenger wire are integrated into a cross-section resembling the number "8", designed for easy pole-to-pole installation.
Does this cable require extra support wires?
No, the integrated messenger wire provides the necessary tensile strength for aerial deployment, eliminating the need for separate lashing or support wires.
What are the available fiber core counts?
We offer a wide range of fiber counts, standardly from 2 cores up to 144 cores, and customizable up to 288 cores depending on your project needs.
How does the cable perform in extreme temperatures?
The cable is designed for harsh outdoor environments, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, ensuring stable signal transmission in various climates.
Is the outer jacket UV resistant?
Yes, the high-density polyethylene (PE/HDPE) jacket is carbon-black loaded for excellent UV resistance and long-term durability in outdoor applications.
What is the standard shipping length?
The cable is typically supplied on wooden drums in lengths of 1km, 2km, or 5km per roll, tailored to your specific logistical requirements.
