Photoelectric composite cable

Updated on Sun Aug 24 2025

Optical communication cables play a vital role in the entire communication industry and become the cornerstone of modern communication. With the development of 5G communication and the completion of the field, the application of optoelectronic composite cables has further increased. Today, ZR Cable will briefly introduce what the photoelectric composite cable is.


Photoelectric composite cable

Overview

Optical fiber composite cable is an access method that integrates optical fiber and power transmission copper wire, which can solve the problems of broadband access, equipment power consumption, and signal transmission.


structure

The structure in the photoelectric composite cable is generally composed of two parts, the sheath and the cable core, mainly including the following two parts:

1. Electric unit (wire)

This part is very important in the cable. When carrying out the specific design, the range of the line transmission, the voltage of the power supply and the related equipment should be considered in detail, and the comprehensive requirements of the power consumption should be scientifically and reasonably selected. with design.

2. Light unit

The optoelectronic composite cable contains the components of the optical unit, which can combine the transmitted electric energy with the communication of the optical signal. The most important parts of the optical fiber are the core and the cladding.


advantage

1. Small outer diameter, light weight and small footprint;

2. Low customer procurement cost, low construction cost, and low network construction cost

3. It has excellent bending properties and good lateral pressure resistance;

4. It is convenient to use in construction, avoid secondary construction and eliminate the occurrence of repeated construction, and the cost is low;

5. Provide a variety of transmission technologies at the same time, with high adaptability and scalability to the same equipment, and the product has a wide range of applications;

6. Solve the problem of equipment power consumption in network construction (avoid repeated layout of power supply lines).


use

This product is suitable for outdoor wiring, electrical instrumentation, telecommunication broadcasting, electronic equipment and automation, etc. It has excellent compressive performance and is suitable for outdoor wiring projects such as overhead and pipeline laying; this product is suitable for outdoor wiring, electrical instrumentation, telecommunication broadcasting, electronic equipment and automation lines.


Whether in urban or rural areas, such as shopping malls, hotels, office buildings, residences, airports, docks, stations, gymnasiums, entertainment halls, subways, tunnels, etc.; and natural environment barriers, such as tourist attractions, highways, farms, forests, Mines, hydropower stations, islands and other places are all difficult and weak areas in the coverage of communication networks.


Product reference standard

The relevant performance of optical cable meets the communication industry standard YD/T901-2001 layered optical cable for communication, YD/T1258.2-2003 indoor optical cable series Part II: single-core optical cable; cable transmission part meets GB5023-2008 "rated voltage 450/750V" and the following PVC insulated cables".


The mechanical properties of optical cables include items such as stretching, flattening, impact, repeated bending, twisting, winding, and bending.


1. All optical fibers of the optical cable are not broken.

2. The sheath has no visible cracks.

3. The metal components in the optical cable should maintain electrical continuity.

4. There should be no visible damage to the components of the cable core in the sheath.

5. The fiber after the test should have no residual additional attenuation.
