Direct Bury (DB) 4-way 14/10mm

HDPE Tube Bundle

Direct Bury (DB) 4-way 14/10mm

A bundle of micro- or mini-tubes with strengthened wall thickness is encased in a single thin HDPE sheath, forming a duct assembly specifically engineered for fiber optical cable deployment. This robust design enables versatile installation—either retrofitted into existing ducts or directly buried underground—supporting seamless integration into fiber optical cable networks.

 

The micro ducts are optimized for high-efficiency fiber optical cable blowing, featuring an ultra-smooth inner surface with low-friction properties to minimize resistance during air-assisted cable insertion. Each micro duct is color-coded per Figure 1, facilitating quick identification and routing of fiber optical cable types (e.g., single-mode, multi-mode) during network installation and maintenance.

  • Central Loose Tube Non-metallic & Non-armored Fiber Optic Cable

    Central Loose Tube Non-metallic & Non-armo...

    The structure of the GYFXTY optical cable is such that a 250μm optical fiber is enclosed in a loose tube made of high modulus material. The loose tube is filled with waterproof compound and water-blocking material is added to ensure longitudinal water-blocking of the cable. Two glass fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) are placed on both sides, and finally, the cable is covered with a polyethylene (PE) sheath through extrusion.

The box is made of high-quality ABS plastic through injection molding, making it anti-collision, flame retardant, and highly impact-resistant. It has good sealing and anti-aging properties, protecting the cable exit and serving as a screen. It can be installed on the wall.
  • SC / FC / LC / ST Hybrid Adapter

    SC / FC / LC / ST Hybrid Adapter

    Fiber optic adapter, sometimes also called a coupler, is a small device designed to terminate or link fiber optic cables or fiber optic connectors between two fiber optic lines. It contains the interconnect sleeve that holds two ferrules together. By precisely linking two connectors, fiber optic adapters allow the light sources to be transmitted at their maximum and minimize the loss as much as possible. At the same time, fiber optic adapters have the advantages of low insertion loss, good interchangeability, and reproducibility. They are used to connect optical fiber connectors such as FC, SC, LC, ST, MU, MTRJ, D4, DIN, MPO, etc. They are widely used in optical fiber communications equipment, measuring appliances, and so on. The performance is stable and reliable.

    OYI-FAT12B Terminal Box

    The 12-core OYI-FAT12B optical terminal box performs in accordance with the industry-standard requirements of YD/T2150-2010. It is mainly used in the FTTX access system terminal link. The box is made of high-strength PC, ABS plastic alloy injection molding, which provides good sealing and aging resistance. In addition, it can be hung on the wall outdoors or indoors for installation and use. The OYI-FAT12B optical terminal box has an inner design with a single-layer structure, divided into the distribution line area, outdoor cable insertion, fiber splicing tray, and FTTH drop optical cable storage. The fiber optic lines are very clear, making it convenient to operate and maintain. There are 2 cable holes under the box that can accommodate 2 outdoor optical cables for direct or different junctions, and it can also accommodate 12 FTTH drop optical cables for end connections. The fiber splicing tray uses a flip form and can be configured with a capacity of 12 cores to accommodate the expansion of the box’s usage.
  • OYI-FOSC H12

    OYI-FOSC H12

    The OYI-FOSC-04H Horizontal fiber optic splice closure has two connection ways: direct connection and splitting connection. They are applicable to situations such as overhead, manhole of pipeline, and embedded situations, etc. Comparing with a terminal box, the closure requires much stricter requirements for sealing. Optical splice closures are used to distribute, splice, and store the outdoor optical cables that enter and exit from the ends of the closure. The closure has 2 entrance ports and 2 output ports. The shell of the product is made from ABS/PC+PP material. These closures provide excellent protection for fiber optic joints from outdoor environments such as UV, water, and weather, with leak-proof sealing and IP68 protection.
