Corrosion resistance: The outer sheath is made of polyurethane (PUR) or specially modified polyvinyl chloride (PVC), offering excellent resistance to acids, alkalis, greases, and salt solutions, effectively resisting the erosion of complex chemicals in the deep sea and extending cable lifespan.
Wide temperature adaptability: Able to operate normally in a temperature range of -40°C to 80°C, it can run stably whether in the cold polar deep sea or the high-temperature hydrothermal areas of the ocean floor, adapting to the temperature conditions of different global seas.
Precise signal transmission: The conductor is made of high-purity oxygen-free copper wire, twisted through a special process to reduce resistance, minimize signal attenuation and distortion, and ensure that detection data, images, and other information are accurately transmitted to surface equipment.
High flexibility and fatigue resistance: The conductor structure of multiple fine copper strands twisted together, combined with optimized cabling processes, gives the cable good flexibility, allowing it to be arranged flexibly in confined spaces, while also being able to withstand frequent bending and stretching, with excellent fatigue resistance, reducing damage caused by mechanical stress.
