Law/Patents - Electronics / Elect Eng / fiber optic cables
English term or phrase: buffer tube
The wire and cable industry has a continuing interest in flooding compositions that exhibit reduced stickiness, reduced absorption into materials used in the manufacture of cable components such as buffer tubes, jackets, etc., and more environmental friendly.

flooding compositions can be used as filling materials to suspend and protect optical fibers inside buffer tubes.

Flooding compositions are materials designed to occupy void spaces in telecommunication cables, such as the void spaces typically found around and between buffer tubes commonly used in fiber optic cables.

tubo di protezione
Explanation:
I cavi in fibra possono essere costruiti in diversi modi e quindi adatti a diversi usi. Le fibre da interno in genere sono di tipo tight e cioè senza gel protettivo, senza tubo interno di protezione e con un solo strato di guaina. Il cavo risulta essere molto flessibile ed adatto per bretelle o patch piuttosto che per usi esclusivamente interni e protetti.

Le fibre da esterno in genere hanno ulteriori tubi di protezione interna e soprattutto il gel; da qui il nome di fibre loose. https://www.giunzionefibraottica.it/approfondimenti.php
