The invention discloses an insulated fireproof coating for optical cables. The insulated fireproof coating comprises, by weight, solvent oil No.200, ethylene glycol, silicate, glass powder, calcium carbonate, polytetrafluoroethylene powder, epoxy resin, porcellanite, aluminum oxide, silicon nitride, antimony trioxide, mica powder, silicon carbide, maleic anhydride, silicone rubber, vermiculite, titanium dioxide, melamine, pentaerythritol, mineral fibers, powdery polyvinyl chloride, boride and an auxiliary agent, wherein the auxiliary agent refers to a leveling agent or defoaming agent. The insulated fireproof coating for the optical cables has the advantages that the coating is excellent in fireproof, insulated and flame-retardant performance and highly resistant to high temperature; when the coating expands after being heated, a compact uniform fireproof heat-insulated layer is formed; the coating has excellent physical and chemical properties and is quick to dry, resistant to damp, acid, base and water and remarkable in fireproof and heat-insulated effect, so that safety of electric wires and cables can be guaranteed effectively.
