CORE MATERIAL
The core of the fibre optic, with a higher refractive index compared to the cladding, is made of SiO
2
(Silicon dioxide) doped with GeO
2
(Germanium dioxide).
CLADDING MATERIAL
The cladding of the fibre optic is made of SiO
2
(Silicon dioxide).
TYPE OF PRIMARY COATING
The primary coating is made of an UV-curable acrylate. It is applied in two layers, each of a different
Young’s modulus. The inner layer is somewhat softer than the outer one.
This coating protects the fibre against microbending losses and against abrasion.
Fibre color coding:
Fibre 1 blue Fibre 7 red
Fibre 2 orange Fibre 8 black

BUFFER TUBE TECHNIQUE
In the loose buffer tube technique the primary coated fibre is accommodated in a secondary coating,
called buffer tube.
The buffer tube may contain one or more fibres; the fibres are loosely laying in the tube, statistically
in the center of the tube.
Due to stranding of the buffers an overlength is produced.
(The overlength depends on stranding radius, tube diameter and lay length).
That means if a tensile force is applied to the cable, an elongation in a wide range will not result in
fibre strain and no attenuation increase is observed.
The loose buffer technique is also coping best to temperature induced contractions or dilatations of
the cable. The structure is as well a good protection against transverse compression.
As a result the whole cable construction is, within a wide range, insensitive to external influences.
REVERSE LAY (SZ) STRANDING
The elements (loose buffer tubes and if necessary filling elements) are stranded around a central

member according to the reverse lay method, which means, that the direction of stranding reverses
after a predetermined number of revolutions .
At the reverse point the elements are laying parallel to the axis of the cable.
A binder is wound around the elements in order to retain them in the proper position.

MANUFACTURING OF A DIRECT BURIED FIBRE OPTIC CABLE
Around a FRP (Fibre Reinforced Plastic) central member, buffer tubes and if necessary filling
elements are stranded to form the core of the cable.
The central member serving mainly as anti-buckling element will be overcoated with a PE jacket if
required, to obtain the correct stranding radius.
The buffer tubes contain up to 12 fibres and are filled with a paraffine oil based filling compound.
Color coding
buffer tube 1 blue buffer tube 5 grey
buffer tube 2 orange buffer tube 6 white
buffer tube 3 green buffer tube 7 red
buffer tube 4 brown buffer tube 8 black
As well the interstices of the core are filled with a filling compound in order to block any possible
water ingress.
Aramid yarns are then stranded around the optical module to provide the required tensile strength.
An inner PE sheath (nominal thickness 1mm) is extruded above the core covering.
A corrugated steel tape is longitudinally applied over the inner PE sheath with an overlap. The
corrugated steel tape has a nominal thickness of 0.155 mm and 0.4mm above the corrugation; both
surfaces are coated with a copolymer, each one 0.05mm thick. The corrugated steel tape acts as a
rodent protection.
Finally an outer PE-jacket (approximate thickness 1.5 mm is extruded).
Please refer to the cross sectional drawing which we enclose.
MARKING
The marking of durable quality, is printed on the cable at regular interval of one meter length. The
type of legend marking on the cable is as follows:
Manufacturer’s Name. Part Number . Cable type Number of Fibres. Date of manufacturing. Metering mark
