Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable

Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable

Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable is like a “hard-core armor” wrapped around the fiber. It features metal sheathing, tough nylon outer covering, or special structural design specifically engineered to withstand gnawing by rodents such as mice and squirrels, preventing fiber breakage and communication outages.

Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable Advantages

  • Superior anti-gnawing, anti-crushing and anti-impact performance
  • Stable optical transmission performance, low loss, long service life
  • Weather-proof, UV-resistant, suitable for all outdoor harsh environments
  • Meet IEC international anti-rodent testing standards
  • Easy construction, stable laying and low later maintenance cost

Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable Selection

  • Severe rodent area direct burial: choose steel tape armored anti-rodent cable
  • Overhead & lightning protection required: select non-metallic armored anti-rodent cable
  • Ordinary light hazard environment: prefer economical anti-bite sheath optical cable

Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable Main Structural Types

  • Steel Tape Armored Type (GYTA53/GYTS53)

    Double-layer PE sheath with corrugated steel tape armored layer, strong compression and anti-bite ability, ideal for direct burial and underground pipeline projects.

  • Non-metallic Armored Type (GYFTA53/GYFTY73)

    Adopts FRP glass fiber reinforced armor, fully dielectric design, lightning-proof and corrosion-resistant, perfect for overhead laying and thunderstorm-prone areas.

  • High-strength Sheath Anti-rodent Cable

    Made of PA12 nylon sheath or capsaicin repellent sheath, economical and practical, suitable for light rodent hazard environments.

Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable FAQ

What is anti-rodent fiber optic cable?

It is outdoor fiber cable with special armored structure or anti-bite sheath, designed to prevent damage caused by rats, squirrels and other rodents, ensure stable communication operation.

What anti-rodent technologies do you adopt?
Two main solutions:
  1. Physical protection: steel tape armor / FRP non-metallic armor / glass yarn wrapping
  2. Chemical protection: outer sheath added capsaicin repellent ingredient
What are the common models?

GYTA53, GYTS53, GYFTA53, GYFTY73, anti-rodent ADSS etc.

Difference between metal armored and non-metallic armored type?
  • Metal armored: stronger anti-bite, good compression resistance, fit direct burial
  • Non-metallic armored: fully dielectric, lightning proof, no induction current, suitable for overhead laying near power lines
Where is this cable mainly used?

Rural areas, mountain areas, farmland, underground pipeline, outdoor trunk line, power communication, remote monitoring network and places with serious rodent activities.

Can it resist termites as well?

Yes. PA12 nylon sheath and special HDPE sheath version have good anti-termite performance.

Does anti-rodent structure affect optical signal transmission?

No. The reinforced protective layer is outside optical core, will not cause extra optical loss, signal keeps stable.
