FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

How do I choose between E9/125, G50/125 and G62.5/125 optical fibres in BSKT XPRT SYSLTOE FO?
All six power-core counts (18×2.5, 24×2.5, 30×2.5, 36×2.5, 42×2.5 and 48×2.5 mm²) are available with three optical fibre types: E9/125 is 9/125 µm single-mode fibre (OS2, 1310/1550 nm) for long-reach Gigabit Ethernet, HD video and high-bandwidth crane-to-shore telemetry; G50/125 is 50/125 µm graded-index multimode fibre (OM2/OM3, 850/1300 nm) for high-speed industrial Ethernet and Profinet optical switches; and G62.5/125 is 62.5/125 µm graded-index multimode fibre (OM1) for legacy optical fieldbus modules.
Why does the summary sheet list '45 × D' under moving bending radius, and what are the actual basket dimensions?
In the underlying SPREADERFLEX collector-basket engineering specification, 45 × D is the recommended collector-basket height (with a minimum basket diameter of 30 × D), whereas the cable's free-moving minimum bending radius per DIN VDE 0298-3 is ~5 × D (161 mm for 18×2.5 up to 243 mm for 48×2.5). Adistributor summary sheet mistranscribed the 45 × D basket-height figure onto the moving bend radius line. Design your collector basket for Ø ≥ 30 × D, height ≈ 45 × D, counter-clockwise coiling, and deflector/entry bell radii ≥ 5 × D (or ≥ 10 × D for guided deflection).
Why does 48 × 2.5 mm² weigh slightly less (3,937 kg/km) than 42 × 2.5 mm² (4,087 kg/km)?
Sizes from 18 × 2.5 mm² to 42 × 2.5 mm² incorporate a central lead-ball ballast cord wrapped with aramid threads so the cable has enough linear mass to drop and coil cleanly into the gravity-fed basket at up to 160 m/min. At 48 × 2.5 mm² (1,152 kg/km of copper alone), the copper bundle provides sufficient self-weight for gravity coiling, so the central element switches from lead ball cords to a lighter aramid-reinforced elastomer filler.
Is BSKT XPRT SYSLTOE FO electrically screened like 3GSLTOE?
No. BSKT XPRT SYSLTOE FO uses unscreened 2.5 mm² power/control cores (plus a green/yellow protective-earth core) and relies on its 6, 12 or 18 dielectric optical fibres for completely EMI-immune data, camera and PLC communication. If your spreader also requires tinned-copper braid EMC screening over copper control cores or copper fieldbus pairs, select 3GSLTOE.
