Infinique’s Loose Tube Steel Wire Armored Cable offers durability and reliability needed for network backbones in outside plant applications of harsh environmental conditions. The high strength galvanized steel wire armor offers a significant improvement in strength and mechanical performance. With marked improvement in tensile performance, crush resistance, impact energy resistance, this cable provides the strength and durability needed for extreme conditions. These rugged cables are ideal for use as a direct buried cable in heavy construction zones including telecommunication, pipelines, oil and gas fields, heavy industrial sites and a variety of harsh environments.
The cable construction is composed of a central strength member stranded around by thixotropic gel-filled loose tubes with multi-core buffered fibers to ensure optimum performance and long life. Aramid Yarn is longitudinally applied around the loose tubes which gives both the strength and acts as a moisture barrier. Copolymer Coated Steel Tape, is applied along the cable to give protection against water and other elements. The inner HDPE sheath layer hermetically seals all the layers inside and gives protection against aggressive elements. Rip cords are applied longitudinally to enable easy stripping of the cable during end preparation for testing and installation. The cable has a rugged construction with Flame Retardant Dual Jacket which Galvanized Steel Wire Armor between them, that strengthens the cable to make it suitable for challenging harsh conditions. For speedy installation and clear identification, the sub-units and buffered fibers are color coded in accordance with Telcordia standards. The cable is clearly meter marked with the markings being embossed and printed in white color. Both ends of the cable are capped to avoid water ingress and are accessible for testing. Cable is packed in fumigated wooden drums with angle rod support to take the cable load. Cable drums are accompanied with individual cable test report and custom markings.
