    Why do optical cables have poor flame retardancy

    Flame-retardant cables are often made with PVC insulation, which contains chlorine. Halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant optical cable not only has excellent flame retardancy and the materials used do not contain halogen components, so it is less corrosive and toxic when burned and produces very little smoke, which can effectively reduce the harm to human body, equipment and. When you specify or buy fiber cables, the jacket material and fire rating are as important as fiber type and connector. But when PVC burns, it releases hydrogen chloride gas and thick, black smoke. These cables do more than resist fire — they keep. Light transmittance of flame retardant and fire-resistant optical fiber cable is more than 68% according to IEC61034. 16dB under 90 minutes fire alone at 750 °C and 15 minutes cooling time condition. Following EU rules like CPR and EN 50575 reduces fire dangers. It also makes sure cables work well. Choosing cables with the right Euroclass rating, like B2ca, gives. In some of these applications, it is important for the cables to be flame resistant.
