Buyer summary

The supplied BWNFiber record identifies this page as a 6F GYFTY73 non-metallic anti-rodent fiber optic cable configuration for outdoor access/distribution and a direct-buried application listing. The record lists an FRP central strength member, glass yarn armor, black PE sheath, an 11.3 mm nominal cable diameter and the optical, mechanical and temperature values below. Confirm the controlled drawing, fiber grade, layer terminology and test revision before quotation or installation.

Key features (source-bounded)

  • Fiber count: 6F.
  • Model/application entry: GYFTY73-nB1.3 / direct buried installation — confirm table alignment.
  • Central strength member: FRP.
  • Armor material entry: glass yarn — confirm whether the approved wording is yarn, tape or another layer.
  • Sheath entry: black PE; inner/outer layer assignment requires engineering confirmation.
  • Nominal cable diameter: 11.3 mm; cable weight: 95 kg/km.
  • Connector, termination, drum length, certification and compatibility: TBC — source required.

How to select and quote

Use the exact product identity “GYFTY73 6F Non-Metallic Double-Sheath Anti-Rodent Fiber Optic Cable.” Include total cable length, required length per drum or roll, quantity, cable marking and delivery destination. State whether the route is direct buried or another installation method; do not assume aerial or duct suitability from the model name alone. Request the approved datasheet/drawing if fiber grade, layer construction, test method, connector/termination or certification is project-critical.

Compatibility and boundaries

This record describes a cable, not a terminated assembly. Connector type, end termination, transceiver compatibility, splice closure, bend-sensitive fiber grade and standards compliance are not supplied. They must be confirmed against the project BOM and approved datasheet. Do not combine values from other GYFTY73 counts or other anti-rodent constructions.

Testing and quality control

The V4 record lists optical, crush, tensile, bend and temperature values but does not provide test equipment, method, sample size, acceptance limits or report number. Publish a test/quality-control section only after BWNFiber supplies the controlled test record. Until then: Test method and report: TBC — source required.

RFQ CTA

Request a GYFTY73 6F quotation. Send the exact model, 6F count, total length, drum/roll length, quantity, marking text, destination, installation method and any required fiber grade, drawing, test report or certification. BWNFiber should confirm the final construction and quotation row before order release.

FAQ

FAQ

Which fiber count does this page cover?
The supplied page is for the 6F configuration. Other counts must be quoted as separate configurations.

Is this cable terminated with connectors?
No connector or termination is specified in the supplied record. Treat it as a cable configuration and request termination separately if required.

Is the cable suitable for direct burial?
The supplied model table lists direct-buried installation. Confirm the approved installation method, route conditions and current datasheet before deployment.

What does non-metallic anti-rodent mean here?
The supplied record lists glass yarn armor and an FRP central strength member. The anti-rodent test method or performance standard is not supplied and must not be inferred.

What attenuation values are listed?
The record lists maximum attenuation of 0.36 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.21 dB/km at 1550 nm. These values do not replace a complete link-loss budget including splices, connectors and other components.

What should be included in an RFQ?
Include the exact model, 6F count, total length, drum/roll length, quantity, marking and destination, plus any required drawing, fiber grade, test report or certification.
