Description
In the Nitrotel GYTA cable, single-mode/multimode fibers are positioned in the loose tubes, which are made of high modulus plastic materials, while the loose tubes strand together around metallic central strength member into a compact and circular cable core. For certain high fiber count cables, the strength member would be covered with polyethylene (PE). The water blocking materials are distributed into interstices of the cable core, and the Aluminum Polyethylene Laminate (APL) is longitudinally applied around the cable core before a HDPE sheath is extruded over it.
