Orientalfiber Stranded Loose Tube Non-Armored Fiber Optic Cable – 250μm fibers in high-modulus loose tubes with waterproof compound, central metal strength member (PE extruded for higher fiber counts), stranded tube construction with water-blocking fillers, and PE sheath over plastic-coated aluminum/steel tape.
The Stranded Loose Tube Non-armored Fiber Optic Cable is a multi-fiber communication cable designed for outdoor environments. Its architecture involves placing 250μm optical fibers into high-modulus loose tubes filled with waterproof gel. These tubes are stranded around a central metallic strength member (CSM) to ensure structural integrity. To prevent moisture ingress, the core gaps are filled with water-blocking compounds and protected by a robust Polyethylene (PE) sheath.
Core Manufacturing Strength
Orientalfiber operates as part of a comprehensive group with four specialized factories. This allows for a vertically integrated production process:
Scale: Four distinct factories focusing on indoor/outdoor cables, ODN components, and network equipment.
Compliance: Production adheres strictly to ISO9001 Quality Management and ISO45001 Occupational Health and Safety standards.
Quality Control: Each meter of Stranded Loose Tube Non-armored Fiber Optic Cable undergoes rigorous testing to meet YD/T 901 and IEC 60794-1 standards.
Key Features of Orientalfiber Cables
Hydrolysis Resistance: High-strength loose tubes protect fibers from chemical degradation over time.
UV Protection: The black PE sheath offers high resistance to ultraviolet radiation, extending the service life in outdoor installations.
Moisture Barrier: Utilizes APL (Aluminum Polyethylene Laminate) or PSP (Plastic Steel Player) to provide a superior moisture seal.
Mechanical Stability: The compact structure and central strength member prevent loose tubes from shrinking or shifting under temperature fluctuations.
Good mechanical and temperature performance
High strength loose tube that is hydrolysis resistant
Special tube filling compound ensure a critical protection of fibre
Specially designed compact structure is good at preventing loose tubes from shrinking
PE sheath protects cable from ultraviolet radiations
The following measures are taken to ensure the cable watertight:
-Steel wire used as the central strength member
-Loose tube filling compound
-100% cable core filling
-APL or PSP moisture barrier

Q: How does this cable handle water ingress?
A: The Stranded Loose Tube Non-armored Fiber Optic Cable uses a dual-layer defense: tube filling compound for the fibers and a 100% cable core filling compound for the interstices.
Q: What standards does Orientalfiber follow?
A: All outdoor cables comply with IEC 60794-1 and YD/T 901 standards, ensuring compatibility with global network hardware.
