48 Core Underground Normal Duct Fiber Optic Cable

48-Core Underground Ordinary Conduit Fiber Optic Cable GYFTY – Reliable, Durable, and Future-Ready for Global Telecommunications

This high-performance fiber optic cable is engineered for robust deployment in underground conduit environments, offering exceptional signal integrity over long distances. Designed with the latest G652D single-mode fiber technology, the GYFTY cable delivers ultra-low attenuation—just 0.35 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.21 dB/km at 1550 nm—making it ideal for metropolitan area networks (MANs), access networks, and backbone infrastructure across diverse climates and terrains.

Key features include a central strength member made from non-corrosive FRP (Fiber-Reinforced Plastic), which enhances tensile strength while resisting moisture ingress. Each loose tube is filled with a gel compound that protects individual fibers from hydrolysis and mechanical stress, ensuring long-term reliability even under extreme environmental conditions. With full central filling and waterproofing measures, this cable provides complete protection against water penetration—a critical advantage for buried installations in humid or flood-prone regions.

The construction emphasizes flexibility and ease of installation: the cable can withstand static bending radii up to 10 times its outer diameter and dynamic bending radii up to 20 times its diameter without signal degradation. This makes it suitable for both direct burial and microduct placement, especially where space constraints or existing duct systems require minimal disruption during deployment. Its wide operating temperature range—from -40°C to +70°C—ensures stable performance in arctic winters and tropical summers alike.

Engineered for longevity, the GYFTY cable offers a service life exceeding 30 years, reducing lifecycle costs and maintenance needs. Whether used in urban fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) projects, rural broadband expansion, or industrial communication networks, this cable supports scalable, future-proof connectivity solutions. The modular design also allows for easy splicing and termination, minimizing downtime during network upgrades or repairs.

Available in multiple packaging options—including standard rolls and wooden drums—the cable supports efficient logistics via sea freight, road transport, or rail. Major ports such as Guangzhou Huangpu, Nansha, and Shenzhen Shekou provide seamless global shipping routes, enabling quick delivery to markets worldwide.

Users consistently praise the cable’s consistent optical performance, durability in harsh environments, and compatibility with existing fiber management systems. Many telecom engineers highlight its suitability for both new builds and retrofits, particularly when deploying inside conduits or microducts where space efficiency and low loss are essential.

Frequently asked questions often revolve around installation best practices, including how to handle tight bends without compromising signal quality, or whether the gel-filled tubes require special cleaning procedures. The answer lies in following manufacturer guidelines: avoid excessive pulling tension, use proper lubricants for microduct insertion, and ensure no air pockets remain in the gel during installation. These precautions help maintain optimal performance throughout the cable’s operational lifespan.

In summary, the 48-core GYFTY fiber optic cable represents a balance between technical excellence and practical usability—an indispensable asset for modern telecommunications infrastructure across Europe, North America, South America, Africa, and Oceania. For professionals seeking reliable, low-loss, and long-lasting fiber solutions, this product stands out as a globally trusted choice.
