The outdoor and indoor optical cable for the following:
Indoor cable need to have a certain degree of flexibility, both to even soft tensile, so the materials are not the same indoor cable used to reinforce the is aramid (Kevlar), now nearly 50 million yuan a ton and each fiber package layer 0.9 sheath; outdoor cable used to reinforce the is steel wire, steel strip, fiber is bare fiber coloring, so the cost difference is very big.

In Addition:
1. Outdoor optical cables are generally used in single mode optical fibers
2. Indoor optical fiber cable is a multimode fiber

3. And the price is also more expensive than single mode.
