Optical cable universal GERDA-KOU (TU 3587-020-76960731-2010)

  • Universal optical cables GERDA-KOU are designed for digital communication signal transmission when installed in trunk, intra-zone, and local communication lines, as well as for connecting electronic devices with the capability of simultaneously using digital and analog signals.

    The application scope and structural features of the cables are presented in Table 1.

    Various types of single-mode and multimode optical fibers are used in the cables in accordance with GOST 52266-2020 (see Table 2).

    The tight buffer coating of the optical fiber ensures fiber strength, acts as a damping element (absorbing shocks), and provides additional protection from environmental influences. The characteristics of optical fiber in a tight buffer coating are given in Table 3.

    The cables are manufactured in modular, tubular constructions and as optical patch cords.

  • The number of optical fibers in modular-structured cables ranges from 2 to 144, while in cables with a central modular tube and optical patch cords, it ranges from 2 to 12.

    The coloring of optical fibers and optical modules ensures their unambiguous identification during installation (see Table 4).

    The GERDA-KOU cable can be manufactured in a combined version, where both electrical power (via conductive cores) and optical signals (via optical fibers) are transmitted within the same cable. Optical fibers can be combined with any cable from the “Gerda Cable System.” Using a combined transmission cable reduces costs associated with cable installation.

    The fire safety rating and operating temperature of the cables, depending on the sheath material, are provided in Table 5.

    The conventional designation of GERDA-KOU cable brands is given in Table 6.

    An example of the conventional designation of cable brands for ordering is provided in Table 7.
