Testing can be done using an Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) or a light source and power meter. These tools help verify signal integrity, measure signal loss, and identify any faults or issues in the cable.
Outdoor duct cables are specialized types of cables designed for installation in ducts, conduits, or direct burial in outdoor environments. These cables are engineered to withstand harsh environmental conditions such as moisture, temperature fluctuations, UV radiation, and physical stress. They are commonly used in telecommunications, data transmission, and power distribution applications.
1. Durability: Robust construction to withstand environmental factors.
2. Moisture Resistance: Water-blocking materials to prevent moisture ingress.
3. Mechanical Strength: Reinforced with strength members for tensile strength.
4. Low Signal Attenuation: High-speed data transmission with minimal signal loss.
1.Telecommunications: Long-distance communication networks.
2. Broadband Networks: High-speed internet connectivity for various areas.
3. Data Centers: Reliable data transfer between servers and networking equipment.
4. Municipal and Utility Networks: Smart city applications and utility monitoring.
Testing can be done using an Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) or a light source and power meter. These tools help verify signal integrity, measure signal loss, and identify any faults or issues in the cable.
Moisture resistance is achieved through the use of water-blocking materials such as gel-filled tubes, water-swellable tapes, or powders. These materials prevent moisture from reaching the optical fibers and causing signal degradation.
