What fibre optic cable should be used for underground installation?

Time: 2021-06-29 Views: 617

Loosetube fibre cable of gel-filled or dry-core construction should be used whether fibre cable is direct buried or installed within underground conduit. There is no guarantee against water filling a conduit or the cable becoming exposed to sunlight at some point in the run so an underground rated cable with UV-resistant jacket is recommended.
