The fibers, 250μm, are positioned in a
loose tube made of a high modulus
plastic. The tubes are filled with a water-
resistant filling compound. A Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) is located in the center
of core as a non-metallic strength member.
The tubes (and fillers) are stranded
around the strength member into a
compact and circular core. An aluminum
Polyethylene Laminate (APL) is applied
around the cable core. Then the cable
core is covered with a thin polyethylene
(PE) inner sheath, which is filled with
jelly to protect it from water ingress.
After a corrugated steel tape armor is
applied, the cable is completed with a
PE outer sheath.
