Hybrid Optical and Electrical Stranded Loose Tube Cable GDTS

Product Overview and Material Composition

The Hybrid Optical and Electrical Stranded Loose Tube Cable GDTS utilizes a sophisticated multi-layer architecture. At its core, a metal reinforcement member provides the necessary tensile strength. Surrounding this center are loose tubes made of high-modulus plastic, housing the optical fibers and protective filling compounds.

Integrated alongside these tubes are insulated copper wires, configured to specific electrical requirements. This core assembly is shielded by a corrugated steel tape armor, which offers robust protection against mechanical impact and rodent damage. The entire structure is finished with a durable polyethylene (PE) outer sheath, ensuring long-term stability in harsh environmental conditions.

Key Technical Advantages

• Integrated Power and Signal: By combining copper conductors and optical fibers, the Hybrid Optical and Electrical Stranded Loose Tube Cable GDTS eliminates the need for separate power lines, simplifying the cabling architecture.
• Mechanical Resilience: The corrugated steel tape armoring and metal strength member allow for reliable performance in high-tension environments, including duct and overhead installations.
• Environmental Stability: The loose tube design and moisture-resistant filling compounds protect the fibers from temperature fluctuations and water ingress.
• Operational Efficiency: Centralizing the power supply for remote equipment reduces the need for local power site coordination and simplifies routine maintenance schedules.

Primary Application Scenarios

Distributed Base Station Systems (BBU to RRU)

The primary use case for Orientalfiber's GDTS cable is the connection between the Building Baseband Unit (BBU) and the Remote Radio Unit (RRU) in DC remote power supply systems. It allows for the simultaneous transmission of high-bandwidth signals and the delivery of necessary electrical power to the remote antenna units.

Urban Infrastructure and Industrial Networks

Beyond telecommunications, this Hybrid Optical and Electrical Stranded Loose Tube Cable GDTS is deployed in rail transit, highway monitoring systems, and smart grid power distributions where localized power sources are unavailable or difficult to install.

Project Implementation and Cost Management

Utilizing the Hybrid Optical and Electrical Stranded Loose Tube Cable GDTS contributes to a significant reduction in overall project expenditure. By decreasing the volume of materials required and shortening the installation timeline, operators can achieve lower procurement and construction costs. This streamlined approach also minimizes the physical footprint in crowded conduits and cable trays.
