GCYFY
Air Blown Fiber Optic Cable: High-Density, Lightweight Solution for Modern Telecommunications Infrastructure This advanced air-blown micro fiber optic cable is engineered for efficient underground duct installations in urban and suburban environments. Designed with a non-metallic structure and compact circular profile, it offers superior performance for high-capacity data transmission while minimizing installation complexity and environmental disruption. Ideal for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), fiber-to-the-building (FTTB), and metropolitan area network (MAN) deployments, this cable ensures rapid deployment without the need for excavation permits—making it a cost-effective choice for city planners and telecom operators worldwide. Key Features: - 48-core configuration using G652D single-mode fiber for optimal signal integrity -
loose tube design with water-resistant gel compound to protect fibers from moisture ingress - Fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) central strength member (1.5mm diameter) for durability and tensile resistance - Low attenuation values: ≤0.35 dB/km at 1310nm and ≤0.22 dB/km at 1550nm for long-distance, high-speed connectivity - Cable diameter of just 5.6mm for easy blowing through existing conduits - Modular construction with 4 tubes, each containing 12 individual fibers—ideal for scalable network expansion Detailed Description: The GCYFY
air blown fiber optic cable combines innovation with practicality. Its lightweight, flexible nature allows technicians to install or replace cables quickly using compressed air—a method known as “air-blown” or “microduct blowing.” This technique eliminates the need to dig up roads or sidewalks, reducing both time and labor costs significantly. The cable’s internal structure features multiple loose tubes filled with a hydrophobic gel that shields fibers from water damage and mechanical stress. These tubes are stranded around a central FRP core, forming a robust yet compact unit that maintains excellent bending performance even in tight spaces. With a wide range of fiber counts—from 4 to 288 cores—this solution supports evolving bandwidth demands across residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Use Cases: Perfect for fiber rollouts in densely populated areas where trenching is restricted or impractical. Commonly deployed in smart city projects, campus networks, utility corridors, and fiber backbone expansions. It's also ideal for retrofitting older infrastructure by utilizing existing ducts without additional civil works. Whether you're upgrading legacy systems or building new fiber-optic networks from scratch, this cable delivers reliable performance and future-proof scalability. Customer Feedback: Users consistently praise its ease of installation, especially when compared to traditional armored cables. One telecommunications engineer noted, "We saved over 70% on labor costs during our last project because we could blow the cable directly into pre-installed microducts." Another user highlighted how the ability to splice or branch connections at any point reduced the number of required access points—cutting down on manhole construction and maintenance expenses. Frequently Asked Questions: What makes air blown fiber different from conventional fiber? Unlike traditional cables that require manual pulling through ducts, air blown fiber uses pressurized air to propel the cable through microducts, enabling faster and more efficient placement with minimal disruption to surrounding infrastructure. Can I add more fibers later? Yes—the modular design allows for easy addition or replacement of fibers without disturbing existing ones. This feature supports dynamic network growth and reduces downtime during upgrades. Is it suitable for outdoor and underground use? Absolutely. The waterproof gel inside each loose tube provides excellent protection against moisture, temperature fluctuations, and physical stress, making it ideal for direct burial or conduit-based installations. How does the attenuation compare to other cables? With attenuation levels below 0.35 dB/km at 1310nm and under 0.22 dB/km at 1550nm, this cable exceeds industry standards for low-loss optical transmission, ensuring stable performance over extended distances.
