The Uni-tube Non-metallic 73 Sheath Light-weight Lighting Anti-rodent Fiber Optic Cable from Orientalfiber integrates single-mode or multi-mode optical fibers into a high-modulus polyester loose tube filled with a water-blocking compound. The loose tube is reinforced with FRP rods and wrapped with polyethylene inner and outer sheaths. This construction provides mechanical reliability, flexibility, and excellent protection against environmental factors, including rodents and UV exposure.

By combining lightweight design with robust mechanical and thermal properties, this cable supports long-term installations in both indoor and outdoor environments. Its small diameter and flexible structure make it easier to handle and deploy compared to standard armored cables.
