Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is the maximum operating temperature of this fiber optic cable?
This cable is rated for a maximum temperature of 150°C (300°F), making it suitable for high-temperature downhole and industrial environments where standard cables would fail.
Q
What is the breaking strength and recommended working tension of this cable?
The cable has a breaking strength of 25 kN (5,600 lbs). The maximum suggested working tension is 12.5 kN (2,800 lbs), which is 50% of the breaking strength to ensure a safe operational safety margin.
Q
What fiber types are supported, and what are their attenuation values?
The cable supports both single-mode and multi-mode fibers. Single-mode attenuation is 0.40 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.30 dB/km at 1550 nm. Multi-mode attenuation is 3.5 dB/km at 850 nm and 1.2 dB/km at 1300 nm.
Q
What is the outer diameter and weight of the cable?
The cable has an outer diameter of 5.6 mm ± 0.20 mm (0.220″ ± 0.0078″) and weighs 152 kg/km (102 lbs/kft) in air, providing a compact and lightweight solution for deployment in space-constrained wellbores.
Q
What is the minimum shave diameter and why does it matter?
The minimum shave (sheave) diameter is 600 mm (23.6″). This specification is critical for spooling and deployment operations — using a sheave smaller than this minimum can cause microbending losses or permanent damage to the fiber optic elements inside the cable.
Q
How is the armor construction designed to protect the fiber optic core?
The cable features a dual-layer armor design: an inner armor layer of 12 × 0.79 mm wires and an outer armor layer of 18 × 0.79 mm wires, each providing 916 N (204 lbs) of resistance. This double-armored construction protects the fiber optic unit tube from crush loads, tension, and harsh downhole conditions.
