Remind Users To Pay Attention To Optical Fiber Cable Material

    According to the manufacturer of optical fiber cable, the country has already specified that copper wires should be used in new homes. But the same is the copper wire, there are also inferior copper wire, the copper core is made of recycled copper, contains many impurities, and some of the inferior copper wire is not even as conductive as the wire, which is easy to cause electrical accidents.

    At present, there are many varieties of optical fiber cables on the market, many specifications, and chaotic prices. It is very difficult for consumers to choose. For the price of 2.5 square millimeters and 4 square millimeters of copper core wires commonly used in home decoration, the same specification of one wire, because of the different optical fiber cable manufacturers, the price can vary by 20% to 30%. As for the quality of the quality, whether the length is up to standard, consumers are more difficult to determine.

Optical fiber cable manufacturers revealed that the reason for the huge difference in optical fiber cable prices is due to the different raw materials used in the production process. The main raw materials for the production of optical fiber cables are electrolytic copper, insulating materials and sheathing materials.

    At present, the electrolytic copper in the raw material market is about 50,000 yuan per ton, and the recovered copper is only about 40,000 yuan per ton; the price of high-quality products of insulating materials and sheathing materials is 8,000 yuan to 10,000 yuan per ton, and defective products. The price is only 4,000 yuan to 5,000 yuan per ton, and the difference is even more disparity.

    The optical fiber cable manufacturer added that the length is insufficient and the insulation contains insufficient glue, which is also an important reason for the price difference. The length of each line is 100 meters, and the defective product is only about 90 meters; the insulation containing rubber is 35% ~ 40%, and the defective product is only 15%.
