    ? Frequently Asked Questions
    1 What is the maximum working tension of this fiber optic composite cable?
    The maximum suggested working tension is 22.5 kN (5,000 lbs), which is 50% of the cable breaking strength of 45 kN (10,000 lbs). Staying within this limit helps protect cable integrity and optical performance during deployment.
    2 What temperature rating does this cable support?
    This cable is rated for continuous operation at up to 150 ℃ (300 ℉), making it suitable for high-temperature downhole environments encountered in oil and gas well monitoring applications.
    3 What voltage and insulation resistance specifications does the electrical conductor offer?
    The cable is rated at 1200 VDC with an insulation resistance of 15,000 MΩ·km (50,000 MΩ·kft) and a typical conductor resistance of 18.0 Ω/km (5.5 Ω/kft) at 20 ℃, ensuring reliable power delivery alongside fiber optic sensing.
    4 What are the fiber optic attenuation values for single-mode and multi-mode fibers?
    For single-mode fiber, attenuation is 0.40 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.30 dB/km at 1550 nm. For multi-mode fiber, it is 3.5 dB/km at 850 nm and 1.2 dB/km at 1300 nm, providing flexible options for both short- and long-distance sensing scenarios.
    5 What is the minimum shave (sheave) diameter required for this cable?
    The minimum recommended sheave diameter is 600 mm (23.6″). Using a sheave smaller than this specification may cause excessive bending stress on both the armor wires and the internal fiber optic unit, potentially leading to signal loss or mechanical failure.
    6 How is the cable constructed, and what protection layers does it include?
    The cable features a layered construction: a central fiber optic unit tube (2.20 mm), followed by inner protection (2.60 mm), an outer copper conductor (3.20 mm), outer PP protection (4.20 mm), and a dual-layer steel armor — inner armor at 18×0.81 mm (963 N) and outer armor at 18×1.11 mm (1808 N) — resulting in a final outer diameter of 8.0 mm and a cable weight of 290 kg/km.
