GYFTY 2–216F Stranded Loose Tube PE Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable

GYFTY

Product value summary

This page is reserved for a confirmed high-count GYFTY configuration covering 146–216 fibers. Approval must use one controlled part number that ties the quotation to the cable drawing, tube plan, fiber grade, outside diameter, weight, mechanical limits, temperature conditions and drum schedule.

Quick answer

Do not select a 146–216F GYFTY cable from the family name or fiber count alone. Confirm the complete tube and filler plan, cable diameter, weight, fiber grade, short- and long-term mechanical limits, route conditions and delivery length against the current datasheet and drawing. Values from lower-count rows are not interchangeable.

Verified configuration

Application and compatibility boundary

The final page must state the installation methods for which the exact model is documented. Do not infer aerial self-support, duct, direct-burial, high-voltage-route, UV, flame, rodent or water-ingress performance from the terms GYFTY, FRP or PE alone.

This is a bulk-cable configuration. Connector type, polish, polarity, transceiver compatibility and installed-link loss belong to the termination and system design unless BWNFiber supplies an approved pre-terminated assembly specification.

How to select the configuration

1. Define the network role and complete installation route.
2. Confirm the fiber grade, working-fiber count, reserve and branch plan.
3. Match the tube plan, cable diameter and bend limits to ducts, closures, entries and handling equipment.
4. Confirm the route-specific tensile, crush, temperature, water, UV and other environmental requirements.
5. Request one part number with a revision-controlled datasheet and drawing.
6. Agree on inspection, test records, sheath marking, drum sections, packaging and permitted deviations before production.

Documents to request

• Configuration-specific datasheet
• Cable cross-section and tube-plan drawing
• Bill-of-material summary or controlled construction description
• Optical, dimensional, mechanical and environmental acceptance criteria
• Applicable test-record schedule
• Fiber and tube color-code plan
• Sheath-marking schedule
• Drum-length and packaging plan
• Approved deviation list

RFQ checklist

Send BWNFiber:

• Duct, closure, entry, support or burial conditions
• Mechanical and environmental requirements
• Total length, section lengths and drum plan
• Cable marking, packaging and document-language requirements
• Quantity, delivery destination and target schedule
• Required datasheet, drawing, sample, inspection and test records

Request a 146–216F configuration review

Send the route, fiber grade and count, mechanical and environmental requirements, total length, drum plan and required approval documents. BWNFiber can confirm whether a controlled high-count GYFTY configuration is available and identify the information still required for quotation.

Is 216F available in every GYFTY construction?

TBC — source required. Approve only the exact part number and drawing that identify the 216F tube plan and complete cable construction.

Can lower-count dimensions be used for a 216F order?

No. Use the configuration-specific diameter, weight, tube plan and mechanical limits. Do not combine values from different count rows.

Is this cable self-supporting for aerial installation?

TBC — source required. A non-metallic member does not by itself make the cable ADSS or approve an aerial span. State the support method and route loads before selection.

Is it suitable for direct burial?

TBC — source required. Direct-burial suitability requires an explicit model declaration and review of armor or protection, sheath, water management, soil, rodent and project requirements.

What should be approved before a bulk order?

Approve the part number, datasheet and drawing revisions, fiber and tube plan, dimensions, mechanical and environmental criteria, marking, drum plan, inspection records and written deviations.
