24 Core Underground Armoured Singlemode Fibre Optic Cable

24 Core Underground Armoured Singlemode Fibre Optic Cable is a heavy-duty cable engineered for high-capacity data transmission in harsh underground environments. It combines 24 singlemode fibres with steel or corrugated armouring for superior mechanical protection against impact, rodents, and moisture. This makes it ideal for direct burial or installation in high-risk areas where reliability and longevity are critical.

Product Features

Heavy-Duty Armoured Construction

A corrugated steel tape or steel wire armour layer shields the fibres from mechanical stress, crush, and rodent damage during and after installation.

High-Performance Singlemode Fibres

Contains 24 low-attenuation singlemode fibres (G.652D/G.657A1) for high-bandwidth, long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss.

Direct Burial Ready

Designed for underground installation without additional conduit, reducing installation costs while ensuring network reliability.

Water and Moisture Protection

Loose-tube construction with water-blocking gel or dry yarn prevents water ingress, maintaining long-term performance.

UV and Chemical Resistant Outer Jacket

The rugged PE jacket resists UV rays, moisture, and soil chemicals, extending the life of the cable in demanding conditions.

Easy Identification and Handling

Colour-coded fibres and clear markings simplify splicing, testing, and maintenance.
