FTTH (Fiber to the Home) drop cables come in various types, each suited for different deployment scenarios and environmental conditions. Here are some common types:
Also known as aerial self-supporting cables, these cables are designed to support their own weight without the need for a separate messenger wire. They are commonly used in aerial installations where there are spans between support points. Fiberfuture supply outdoor fiber drop cable model includes: GJYXCH, GJYXFCH, GJYXKCH, etc.
The indoor FTTH fiber optic cable uses a flat butterfly-shaped structure, placing the fiber optic units in the center of the cable and two parallel reinforcements on both sides (metallic steel wires, FRP in metallic or KFRP). And it is covered with a sheath of LSZH. Fiberfuture supply indoor fiber drop cable model includes: GJXFH, GJXH, GJXKH, etc.
These cables have a flattened shape, which makes them easier to install and less conspicuous when deployed along walls or under carpets. They are commonly used for indoor installations and short outdoor runs. Fiberrfuture supply flat fiber drop cable model includes: GYFXTBY, etc.
Figure-8 drop cables have a distinctive shape resembling the number "8". This design allows for easy suspension from poles or other support structures, making them suitable for aerial installations. Fiberfuture supply flat fiber drop cable model includes: GYTC8A/S, GYXTC8S, GYXTC8Y, etc.
In tight-buffered drop cables, each individual fiber is surrounded by its own protective buffer layer. This design provides additional protection to the fibers and makes the cable more flexible, suitable for indoor and outdoor installations where flexibility is important. Fiberrfuture supply flat fiber drop cable model includes: GJFJU(TPU) type, etc.
ADSS cables are designed for aerial installations where the cable must withstand the mechanical forces imposed by environmental factors such as wind and ice. They feature a dielectric construction and are suitable for long-distance spans without the need for additional support structures.
The choice of drop cable type depends on factors such as installation environment, required mechanical strength, protection against environmental factors, and budget constraints.
