[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] (1) The optical fiber of this utility model is wrapped with high-strength PBT loose tube, which has good tensile and compressive strength. An aramid braided layer is set in the middle of the two fluoroplastic heat insulation protection layers, which improves the tensile and bending performance. In addition, the two-layer fluoroplastic heat insulation protection is better than the single-layer fluoroplastic heat insulation effect, avoiding direct heat conduction. The aramid braided layer in the middle not only has tensile strength, but also plays a better role in heat insulation, eliminating cold bridges, ensuring heat insulation effect, and improving the bending performance of the entire structure.
