Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable, Steel Armored 4 Core SM 9/125 GYXTW

The Netsys NS-401SM004 is a high-performance 4-core Single Mode (OS2) outdoor fiber optic cable featuring a rugged GYXTW central loose tube construction. Designed for demanding outdoor environments, this cable is steel-armored to provide superior mechanical protection and moisture resistance for long-distance data transmission.

Key Features

• 4-Core OS2 Single Mode: Utilizes 9/125μm (G652D) fiber cores, optimized for high-bandwidth, long-haul telecommunications and data networking with minimal signal attenuation.

• Steel Armored (PSP): Wrapped with a longitudinal corrugated steel tape (PSP) that provides excellent crush resistance and acts as a barrier against rodents and mechanical impact.

• Weather-Resistant Construction: The fibers are housed in a high-modulus plastic loose tube filled with a water-resistant jelly compound, then encased in a durable, UV-resistant High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) outer jacket.

• Enhanced Tensile Strength: Features two parallel steel wires placed on opposite sides of the steel tape, ensuring the cable can withstand significant pulling force during installation.

• Compact & Lightweight: The GYXTW design offers a small diameter (approx. 9.0mm), making it easier to handle and install in ducts or aerial applications compared to traditional multi-tube cables.

• Hydrolysis Resistance: The high-strength loose tube is specially designed to resist hydrolysis, protecting the delicate glass fibers from moisture-related degradation over time.

Technical Specifications

Best Use Case

The NS-401SM004 is specifically engineered for outdoor campus backbones, municipal networks, and inter-building links. Its armored design makes it suitable for both duct installations and direct burial (with proper preparation), as well as aerial lashing where environmental protection and physical durability are required.
