FTTP Aerial Drop Cable for Overhead Lines

The ftth aerial drop cable are flame-retardant, UV-resistant, indoor/outdoor cables designed for aerial, duct and direct-buried applications with no need for a transition splice when entering the building. Available in fiber counts of 1-24 fibers, the tight-buffered construction facilitates easier termination for low-fiber-count applications in the local area network (LAN) and eliminates need for fan-out kits. The design features TIA-598 color-coded 900 µm TBII Buffered Fibers for easy identification, consistent stripping and direct termination. Available in 50 µm, 62.5 µm, single-mode and hybrid versions, the cable design meets ICEA S-104-696 test criteria and is also OFNR and FT-4 listed for riser and general purpose use. The small diameter and bend radius of the cable allow for easy installation in space-constrained areas while the innovative water-blocking technology is ideal for OSP applications.


APPLICATIONS
self-supporting crush-resistant e

Features

  • 900um tight buffered
  • Water blocking aramid yarns provides sufficient strength to the cable to avoid damage during installation
  • LSZH sheath
  • Ripcord under the outer sheath for easy removal of LSZH jacket
  • Aramid yarn strength members
  • Jacket print ensures product identification and fiber compatibility
  • Buffers strip consistently between 3.5 - 5 lbs-f, helpful for onsite termination
  • 100% Optically Inspected and Tested to be compatible
  • RoHS Compliant

Application

  • Designed for use in both Indoor & Outdoor Environments in Structured Wiring Systems for backbone and or building interconnect.
  • The cable incorporates ‘Dry’water blocking properties suitable for protected external use in covered tray, conduit, underground ducts and tunnels.
  • Coloured jackets have a reduced UV resistance when compared to Black.
