1. What makes GYFTY different from armored cables like GYTS or GYTA?

GYFTY is a non-metallic, non-armored fiber optic cable, which uses aramid yarn for tensile strength instead of steel or aluminum armor. This makes it lightweight, dielectric, and resistant to electromagnetic interference (EMI) — ideal near power lines or in areas with electrical noise.

2. Is this cable suitable for aerial or duct installation?

Yes. GYFTY is commonly used in overhead aerial deployments or duct installations where metallic elements are not permitted. It’s not recommended for direct burial without conduit due to its lack of armor.

3. What is the fiber core capacity of this cable?

The GYFTY cable supports 2 to 288 cores of G.652D or G.655 single-mode fibers, providing flexibility for backbone, metro, or access network deployment.

4. Does the all-dielectric design improve safety or performance?

Absolutely. The all-dielectric construction ensures the cable is non-conductive, which greatly improves safety in high-voltage or lightning-prone areas. It also eliminates the risk of ground loops or electrical conduction through the cable.

5. What are the ideal use cases for GYFTY cable?

GYFTY is best used in:

• High-voltage corridors or power line routes

• Aerial telecom networks

• EMI-sensitive environments (e.g., substations)

• FTTx and long-span deployments without metal
