Product Overview
This armored duct fiber optic cable is intended for outdoor duct networks where the cable must combine transmission stability with long-term structural protection. It is suitable for backbone duct routes, access network deployment, infrastructure communication projects, and other outdoor applications where moisture resistance, crush resistance, and cable durability are important procurement factors.
The cable adopts a stranded loose tube structure. Optical fibers are placed inside high-modulus plastic loose tubes filled with water-resistant compound, while the cable core is wrapped with water-blocking materials to improve protection against moisture ingress. Depending on the selected model, the cable is armored with corrugated aluminum tape or corrugated steel tape and then covered with a PE outer jacket for outdoor duct use.
This product family includes four main structure options: GYTA, GYTS, GYFTA, and GYFTS. These models combine different armor types and central strength member choices, allowing buyers to select the suitable cable according to project conditions such as mechanical protection demand, shielding considerations, cable weight preference, and whether a metallic or non-metallic central strength member is required.
For projects comparing medium- to high-core-count outdoor duct fiber cables, the main checkpoints usually include fiber count, armor type, central strength member type, water-blocking design, and application environment. This series is suitable for bulk supply and project-based procurement where cable structure selection matters as much as fiber capacity.

Available Models
GYTA
Armored duct fiber optic cable with corrugated aluminum tape armor and steel wire central strength member. Suitable for projects that require moisture resistance, lighter cable structure, and metallic central support.
GYTS
Armored duct fiber optic cable with corrugated steel tape armor and steel wire central strength member. Suitable for projects that require stronger crush resistance, stronger impact protection, and higher mechanical protection.
GYFTA
Armored duct fiber optic cable with corrugated aluminum tape armor and FRP central strength member. Suitable for projects that require aluminum tape armor with a non-metallic central strength member.
GYFTS
Armored duct fiber optic cable with corrugated steel tape armor and FRP central strength member. Suitable for projects that require stronger external mechanical protection together with a non-metallic central strength member.
Product Description
This 24-144 core armored duct fiber optic cable is designed for buyers who need a protected outdoor cable for duct installation rather than a general indoor or lightweight distribution cable. The stranded loose tube design helps maintain fiber stability, while the water-blocking structure and armored layer improve suitability for outdoor duct environments where long-term reliability is required.
Compared with non-armored duct cable, this series provides additional structural protection through corrugated aluminum tape or corrugated steel tape, with a steel wire or FRP central strength member selected according to project preference. This makes the series suitable for different route conditions, including projects that prioritize lighter structure, shielding considerations, stronger crush resistance, or non-metallic cable design.
The current product page lists 24 to 144 core configurations, G652D, G655D, OM1, and OM2 fiber type options, PE outer sheath, and outdoor duct installation as the main application direction. It also lists OEM support, MOQ of 1 km, delivery time of 7-15 working days, and supply ability of 5000 km per month, which are practical checkpoints for project buyers evaluating supply suitability and structure matching.
Typical Applications
- Outdoor duct fiber optic network installation
- Telecom backbone duct deployment
- Access network duct projects
- Infrastructure communication projects
- Distribution networks requiring 24-144 core fiber capacity
- Outdoor communication systems requiring both moisture resistance and mechanical protection
How to Choose the Right Model
Choose GYTA for projects that prioritize moisture resistance, lighter cable weight, and EMI shielding considerations.
Choose GYTS for projects that require higher crush resistance, stronger impact protection, better rodent resistance, and stronger mechanical protection in harsher outdoor conditions.
Choose GYFTA for projects that require aluminum tape armor together with an FRP non-metallic central strength member.
Choose GYFTS for projects that require steel tape armor together with an FRP non-metallic central strength member and stronger external mechanical protection.
