Description
2F Aerial Self-support FTTH Drop cable is a high tensile performance Outdoor FTTH Drop cable. To construct the cable, 2pcs of G657A1 or G657A2 SM fiber is located at the geometric
center of the butterfly-shaped shape.Two parallel Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) rods are placed diametrically opposite on either side of the fiber core.In order to achieve aerial installation. A Solid metal message wire must be added to the cable for high tensile purpose. Finally, a durable and anti-UV LSZH jacket is added to create a flat cable cross-section and lend added protection to the cable core.
Characteristics
Self-supporting structure, light weight, easy to install
Special low-bend-sensitivity fiber provides high bandwidth and excellent communication transmission property
Steel wire as additional strength member has high tensile strength
Two parallel FRP strength members ensure good performance of crush resistance to protect the fiber
Simple structure, light weight and high practicability
Fibers count is 1-12 cores, can be other fiber cores upon request.
Novel flute design, easily strip and splice, simplify the installation and maintenance
Durable and flame retardant LSZH sheath, low smoke zero halogen
