10 kV Communication Optical Cable Model

ODN and passive infrastructure knowledge brief Published 11 May 2022

Prepared for preliminary research by the GESTIONVAL ODN knowledge desk. Confirm network topology, split ratio, box or cabinet capacity, joint closure rating and loss budget against current standards and product documentation.

10kV communication optical cables are available from manufacturers like Prysmian, Eland, and Tratos, with models including RFOU 10kV, XLPE-insulated copper or aluminium cores, and options for waterblocking and flame retardancy.Key Models and Types
  • RFOU 6/10(12) kV – Prysmian's medium-voltage cable suitable for fixed installations in both safe and hazardous areas, resistant to oil and mud, flame-retardant, halogen-free, with cores identified by color-coded threads over metallic screens for communication and power applications .
  • Eland 10kV Cables – Single-core and three-core copper or aluminium conductor cables with XLPE insulation and PVC, LSZH, or PE sheathing. Optional longitudinal or radial waterblocking is available. These cables are designed for medium-voltage power distribution and can support communication optical fibers integrated within the cable structure .
  • Tratos 10kV Cables – Standard and bespoke medium-voltage cables compliant with IEC 60502-2, suitable for distribution networks, substations, and industrial installations. These cables can include optical fibers for communication purposes and are available with various insulation and sheathing materials .
Features to Consider
  • Insulation and Sheathing: XLPE insulation with PVC, LSZH, or PE oversheath for mechanical and environmental protection.
  • Waterblocking: Longitudinal or radial waterblocking to prevent moisture ingress.
  • Conductor Material: Copper for indoor or space-limited installations; aluminium for outdoor or larger networks.
  • Screening: Copper wire or tape screens to contain electric fields, reduce EMC issues, and provide grounding paths.
  • Standards Compliance: IEC 60502-2 for medium-voltage cables, with additional national standards as applicable.
