AI Technical Summary
Existing air-blown microcables struggle to simultaneously achieve a small outer diameter and sufficient stiffness, limiting their application scenarios due to the presence of a central reinforcement element or reliance on a central conduit, which results in wasted conduit resources and environmental sensitivity.
An air-blown microcable design featuring an outer sheath with an installation cavity, optical units, and interwoven rigid reinforcing elements, such as glass fiber reinforced rods, forming a cable core that eliminates the need for a central reinforcement element, providing stiffness and reducing the outer diameter through interwoven structures with optical units and water-resistant yarns.
The design achieves a synergistic optimization of minimum outer diameter and maximum stiffness, enhancing air-blowing performance and environmental adaptability, suitable for a wider range of applications with reduced conduit waste and improved reliability.
