                      Fig8 Self-Supporting Cable
                           Aanvraag 
                      This cable is ideal for in long distance and interoffice communication in strong current zone, as well as power transmission system. The built in suspension stranded rope provides high tensile strength, enabling the cable suited for large span installation, resulting in time and installation cost savings. The suspension wire, being an integral part of the cable, is easily available for gripping, fastening and pulling. This cable is featured of its lightness, low dispersion and high tensile strength.  
                            Beschrijving 
                      The cable consists of 5 to 36 fibers containing tubes or fillers stranded in up to 3 layers around a central strength member and bound under a PE jacket. Each jelly filled tube contains 4 -12 fibers. Solid or stranded steel wire coated with polyethylene is usually used as central strength member. Fiber glass reinforced plastics (FRP) will be used as central strength member if non metallic construction is required. Either aramid yarn or fiber glass is wound around the tube to provide physical protection and tensile strength. Water blocking materials are filled in the interstice of the cable core, core wrapping layer/water blocking tape. The cable can be jacketed with either PE, PVC or LSZH though PE is the preferred option for water protection purpose. For direct burial, steel wire armour or corrugated steel tape armour is applied with an optional inner jacket of either PVC or PE. An optional Aluminium moisture tape can be incorporated under the jacket for water blocking and shielding purpose. Cable cores are connected with the suspension wires by PE sheath to form a figure “8” shape. An optional ripcord is located under the jacket to facilitate jacket removal.
