Application
DAC fiber optic cable is designed for direct burial in soil (including frozen deformated soil), through rivers crossings, navigable rivers and deep-water lakes and reservoirs, bayous, ducts, conduits, collectors, tunnels, bridges and overpasses, buildings.
Cable design
- Central strength member – GRP rod.
- Optical fibers of different colors.
- Filler.
- PBT tube filled by hydrophobic compound.
- Waterblocking aluminum tape with polymer coating.
- Inner PE sheath.
- Galvanized steel wire armoring, including hight-strength wires with tensile load no less than 1670 MPa.
- Outer PE sheath
Armouring free space is filled with waterblocking compound.
