Description
OMC’s Toneable Flat Drop cable provides easy FTTx (Fiber-To-The-X) installation and termination using existing hardware and methods for drops to homes and businesses. lts flat profile is compatible with economical wedge clamps for self-support aerial spans up to 300 feet, depending on environmental loading. An all-dielectric version
eliminates the need for bonding and grounding. A toneable version adds a 24 AWG conductor that provides underground location capability, attached by a web for easy tear-away separation from the cable -the most popular option for underground and multi-purpose installation.
Dual Purpose Design:
- The complete cable is used as an outdoor drop
- The inner sub-unit is a PBTLoose tube 2.0 mm
- simplex cable with 900 micron tight buffer fiber
All-Dielectric or Toneable
- All-dielectric version eliminates the need for bonding or grounding
- Optional 24 AWG tone wire is easily separated from the cable
Dry Water-Blocking Technology
- Permits rapid cable preparation and termination
- Water-blocking materials are easily removed
Versatile Design
- Robust outer cable stands up to tough conditions in the outside plant
- Outer cable is easily removed for segments that go indoors
- Simplex sub-unit is compact and UL listed for indoor use, 900-micron tight buffer for easy connection
- Can be used aerially or in duct
Dual Strength Member Design
- Fits into a standard wedge clamp (P-clamp)
- Fully self-supporting
- A great alternative where steel strength members are not permissible
Medium Density Polyethylene Outer jacket
- Low friction installation
- Excellent protection from environmental hazards
Sheath Markings
- Provides positive identification and length verification
- Custom print available
