YOUR MANUFACTURING SOURCE · CHINA

Factories using
HONGKAI equipment.

Your cable is produced by independent Chinese factories using HONGKAI cable-making equipment. These factories are the actual finished-cable manufacturers.

Equipment use does not replace product inspection. Cable acceptance follows the agreed specification, tests and records for your order.

OUR EQUIPMENT & PROJECT BUSINESS

Want to make the cable?

HONGKAI also supplies cable-making equipment and production-project support. Define the equipment route from your cable drawing and production requirements.

06BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE

A clearer
starting point.

Start with the information you have.

Help me choose

How do I know whether ASU / GYFFY fits my project?

A compact aerial cable construction with a central PBT loose tube, two FRP strength members and a PE sheath. Span, loading and installation conditions define the required configuration. Share your route, quantity, destination and any drawing or customer specification so the configuration can be reviewed.

Is HONGKAI the manufacturer of this finished cable?

HONGKAI supplies finished fiber optic cables from independent factories in China that use HONGKAI cable-making equipment. We are your supplier for payment, acceptance inspection and delivery — not the finished-cable manufacturer.

Who receives payment and handles acceptance and delivery?

For finished cable orders, HONGKAI receives payment and handles acceptance inspection and delivery. The actual manufacturer, specification and acceptance requirements are confirmed for your order.

What if I do not know the model or specification?

You can enquire without selecting a model. Send the route, intended connection, approximate quantity or a drawing. We will help identify the information needed for selection.

Can HONGKAI also help with cable-making equipment?

Yes. HONGKAI also supplies cable-making equipment and production-project support. The equipment configuration follows your cable drawing, materials and production requirements.

07LET’S DEFINE YOUR REQUIREMENT
