Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of butterfly optical cable technology, and in particular to a butterfly optical cable with impact resistance. Background Technology

[0002] Butterfly-shaped optical fiber cable is a new type of user access optical cable, named for its butterfly-like cross-sectional shape. It plays a unique role in building intelligent buildings, digital communities, campus networks, and local area networks (LANs). This new type of user access cable is rationally designed in terms of cable structure and technical parameters based on different application environments and laying conditions. It combines the characteristics of indoor flexible optical cables and self-supporting optical cables, and is manufactured using specialized equipment and imported precision molds. It is the best alternative product for FTTX network solutions, playing a unique role in building intelligent buildings, digital communities, campus networks, and LANs.

[0003] In existing underground fiber optic cable installations, due to the complex outdoor environment, the cables are inevitably subjected to heavy objects such as military vehicles or falling rocks in mountainous areas, which can cause severe damage and loss of communication functionality, delaying the acquisition of real-time information. Furthermore, the outdoor environment often encounters harsh weather conditions, and ordinary fiber optic cables cannot guarantee a long service life. In addition, with the increasing demands of national defense and military needs, the required density of fiber optic cables is also increasing, and traditional fiber optic cables are far from meeting these requirements.
