Submarine Optical Cable

submarine optical cable

Application Range:

communication between continent and islands , between islands and islands and among coastal cities.

Product Features:

1) The optical fiber is laid in the laser welded stainless steel tube , which is filled with the thixotropic jelly. It can protect effectively the fiber from the mechanical external force and the water intrusion and prevent the hydrogen induced loss.

2) The inner armor uses two layers of high strength steel wire .

3) The copper conductor can be applied to be used for the fault location or repeated power supply .

4) The Zn-Al-Mg alloy coated wire can be armored in single layer or two layers to make the cable have excellent mechanical performance and sea water corrosion resistance .

5) The modified asphalt is used for the anticorrosion of armor steel wire .

6) The manufacturing length for a single cable is not less than 25km.
