Can armored optical cables be buried directly?

　　Armored cables can be buried directly in the ground. Direct burial is a common way of laying optical cables, that is, the cable is buried directly into the ground without additional pipes or channels. Armored optical cables have the characteristics of compression resistance, tensile resistance, water resistance, etc. The outer material can well protect the cable, making it suitable for direct burial. However, in practical applications, the direct burial of armored optical cables also needs to consider some issues:

　　Underground environment: The underground environment where armored cables are laid needs to be excellent, and a large amount of debris, roots, etc. should be avoided to avoid extrusion and damage to the cables.

　　Construction quality and craftSManship: The direct burial of armored optical cables requires the use of professional tools and construction techniques to ensure the installation quality and avoid dislocation or damage.

　　Service life and maintenance cost: The service life of armored optical cables will be affected to a certain extent under direct burial, so it is necessary to consider the balance between service life and maintenance cost when laying.

　　In addition, the direct burial method has the advantages of reducing costs and saving space. On the one hand, it does not require the construction of additional pipelines or channels, saving material costs and construction costs; on the other hand, it can reduce the occupation of above-ground space, especially suitable for areas with tight space resources such as cities.

　　In summary, armored cables can be buried directly in the ground, but attention should be paid to selecting the appropriate construction environment, adopting the correct laying method, and implementing subsequent protection measures to ensure the safety and stability of the buried cables.
