Underground Copper Telecom Cables

1 Pair to 2400 Pairs Copper Cables
(For Duct or Direct Buried Applications)

Cable Description:
Unarmored Cables with PE insulation & Jelly filling are used between the exchange and cross connection boxes and are designed for installation in Ducts or Direct burial.



CONSTRUCTION DETAILS

Jelly Filled Copper Cables

Copper: Annealed electrolytic copper conductor with various diameter ranging from 0.4 mm to 0.9 mm as per IEC28 and ASTM B3.

Insulation: Conductor insulation are Foam Skin / Cellular / Solid HDPE insulation as per ASTM D 1248 and BS 6234.

Cable Core: Two insulated conductors are twisted together to form a pair with uniform specific lay length . Cable is assembled by stranding of 10 pairs or 20 pairs or 25 pairs basic subunit.

Filling Compound: A moisture resistant filling compound is applied to completely coat the insulated conductors and fill the interstices between pairs and units, to avoid the seepage of water from inside the cables.

Core Wrapping: A non hygroscopic and dielectric polyester film is applied helically over the cable core.

Moisture Barrier/Screen: An aluminum foil coated with co-polymer on both sides or one side is applied longitudinally over the cable core.

Sheath: Black Polyethylene Sheath is extruded over the screen.

Specifications: IEC 60794 for Mechanical & Environmental testing
