MingTong Launches 6 Core to 60 Core Single Mode Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable with Non-Metallic GYFTY Design

August 11, 2026

MingTong Expands Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable Portfolio with 6 Core to 60 Core Single Mode Solutions

Dongguan Mingtong Optoelectronics Co., Ltd., a trusted Chinese manufacturer of fiber optic communication products since 2016, announces the expanded availability of its GYFTY series outdoor fiber optic cables, now offering configurations from 6 Core to 60 Core in single mode fiber with non-metallic loose tube construction. The lineup addresses growing global demand for reliable, cost-effective outdoor cabling solutions suitable for FTTH (Fiber to the Home), metropolitan area networks (MAN), and long-haul telecommunications backbones.

Key Highlights:
  • 6 Core to 60 Core Scalability — Flexible fiber count options meeting diverse project requirements, from small-scale rural deployments to high-capacity urban networks
  • Single Mode G.652D/G.657A1 Compliance — All single mode fibers comply with ITU-T G.652D and G.657A1 standards, ensuring low attenuation and excellent bending performance
  • Non-Metallic GYFTY Design — Fully dielectric construction with FRP strength member eliminates electromagnetic interference and lightning risks, ideal for installation near high-voltage power lines

Product Overview: GYFTY Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable Series

The GYFTY (Gel-filled, Non-Metallic) series represents MingTong commitment to delivering high-performance outdoor optical cables that combine mechanical robustness with ease of installation. Unlike traditional armored cables, the GYFTY design uses a fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) central strength member and gel-filled PBT loose tubes, resulting in a lightweight yet durable cable that requires no grounding during installation.

Core Cable Construction Features:

  • Gel-Filled Loose Tube: Each 250µm optical fiber is housed in a gel-filled PBT loose tube, providing superior protection against moisture ingress and longitudinal water migration
  • Dielectric FRP Strength Member: The non-metallic strength member provides high tensile resistance while keeping the cable lightweight and immune to electromagnetic interference
  • UV-Resistant PE Outer Jacket: The black polyethylene jacket incorporates carbon black UV stabilizers, ensuring long-term outdoor durability with operating temperatures from -40°C to +70°C
  • Compact Stranded Core: Up to 12 loose tubes (plus fillers) are stranded around the central strength member, forming a compact circular core that optimizes fiber density per unit diameter
  • Water Blocking System: Dual protection combining jelly-filled tubes and water-swellable yarns ensures complete longitudinal water blocking even under submersed conditions

Single Mode Fiber Performance

All GYFTY series cables are equipped with premium single mode optical fibers meeting the most demanding telecommunications requirements:

Typical Applications

The GYFTY single mode outdoor fiber optic cable series is purpose-built for a wide spectrum of telecommunications infrastructure deployments:

  • FTTH Last-Mile Distribution: Connecting optical line terminals (OLT) to optical network terminals (ONT) in residential and commercial broadband networks
  • Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN): Inter-building and inter-office connectivity across urban and suburban environments
  • Long-Haul Trunk Lines: Backbone connections up to 100 km without regeneration, leveraging excellent low-attenuation characteristics
  • Power Utility Communications: Safe deployment along high-voltage transmission corridors thanks to fully dielectric construction
  • Railway and Highway Networks: Reliable data transmission infrastructure for transportation communication and signaling systems
