FTTA CPRI Cable
FTTA CPRI Fiber Optic Cable: Reliable Connectivity for 5G Networks & Telecom Infrastructure
OMC FTTA CPRI Cable, short for Fiber-to-the-Antenna Common Public Radio Interface Cable, is a specialized fiber optic cable assembly designed to connect baseband units (BBUs) and remote radio units (RRUs) in wireless communication networks. It plays a crucial role in enabling efficient and reliable data transmission between these components, replacing traditional coaxial cables used for fronthaul connections. The CPRI interface standardizes the transport, connectivity, and control communication criteria between BBUs and RRUs, allowing for seamless interoperability and integration of equipment from different vendors.
Product Advantages of Our FTTA CPRI Cable
Our FTTA CPRI Cable stands out in the market due to its exceptional features and performance. Here are some key advantages:
Rugged Construction
The cable is armored with a robust jacket that provides excellent crush resistance and mechanical durability. This ensures it can withstand the rigors of outdoor installations, such as being pulled through conduits or subjected to heavy loads.
Wide Temperature Range
Our FTTA CPRI Cable is designed to operate reliably in extreme temperature conditions, typically from -40°C to +85°C. This makes it suitable for deployment in various climates, ensuring consistent performance regardless of weather fluctuations.
High Tensile Strength
The cable has a high tensile strength of ≥55 N, allowing it to endure tension and strain during installation and operation without breaking or deforming.
Low Latency
Utilizing fiber optic technology, our FTTA CPRI Cable offers low latency connectivity between the BBU and RRU. This is vital for real-time data transfer in telecommunications networks, ensuring minimal delays in signal transmission and enhancing overall network performance.
High Bandwidth
The cable supports high data rates, accommodating the increasing bandwidth demands of modern wireless communication standards like 4G and 5G. This enables efficient transmission of large volumes of data, including high-definition video and high-speed internet services.
Applicable Scenarios for FTTA CPRI Cable
FTTA CPRI Cable is widely applicable in various scenarios within wireless communication networks:
Base Stations
• BBU to RRU Connection: In mobile base stations, FTTA CPRI Cable establishes the crucial fronthaul connection between the baseband unit (BBU) and the remote radio unit (RRU). This enables the transmission of digitized radio signals and control/management data, facilitating seamless communication between these components and ensuring efficient operation of the base station.
FTTA Deployments
• Centralized BBU Architecture: In FTTA (Fiber-to-the-Antenna) deployments, the baseband unit (BBU) can be centralized while the remote radio units (RRUs) are distributed closer to the antennas. Our FTTA CPRI Cable facilitates this architecture by providing reliable and efficient fiber optic connections between the BBU and RRUs, simplifying installation, reducing costs, and improving network performance.
Outdoor Telecom Applications
• Cell Towers and Antenna Systems: Our FTTA CPRI Cable is designed for outdoor use and can withstand harsh environmental conditions such as rain, dust, and UV exposure. It is widely used in cell towers and antenna systems to connect the base station equipment to the antenna units, providing a reliable and efficient means of transmitting radio signals and data.
• Remote and Harsh Locations: In remote or challenging environments where traditional coaxial cables may not be suitable, FTTA CPRI Cable offers a robust and durable solution. Its rugged construction and weather-resistant properties make it ideal for outdoor telecom applications in areas with extreme temperatures, high humidity, or other adverse conditions.
