Fiber optic overhead ground wire cable and process for the manufacturing thereof

摘要

It is disclosed a process for manufacturing a fiber optic overhead ground wire cable. The process comprising the following steps: providing an optical core with the buffer tube (3) and optical fibres (4); providing a reinforcing structure consisting of at least one layer of wires (50) onto the optical core, at least part of the wires being clad with a first metallic material; extruding an outer layer (6) onto the reinforcing structure, the outer layer being made of a second metallic material having a softening point substantially similar to the softening point of the first metallic material; and cooling the outer layer immediately after extruding.
