Drop Cable
Model: FTTH Fiber Singlemode SST Flat Drop Cable 4.5x7mm Dielectric Gel-Free For Hardened Patch Cable
SST-Drop dielectric cables provide the convenience of installing standard ALTOS cables alongside a simplified, single-tube design that facilitates easy access. This dielectric variant eliminates the need for bonding and grounding. The cables are RUS Listed (RDUP) and feature excellent crush resistance. Available in pre-terminated assemblies, this cable variant is an ideal choice for drop applications.
- Product Introduction
4.5x7mm SST Flat Drop Cable
Singlemode SST Flat Drop Cable 4.5x7mm is designed for efficient and reliable Fiber to the Home (FTTH) installations. This cable combines innovative features with practical design to meet the demands of modern high-speed communication networks.
The primary function of this drop cable is to deliver high-performance singlemode fiber optic connectivity directly to homes or businesses. Its flat design and compact dimensions (4.5x7mm) make it ideal for installations in confined spaces, such as along walls or under floors. The singlemode fiber ensures excellent signal quality and high bandwidth capabilities, supporting high-speed internet, voice, and video services. The gel-free construction simplifies handling and installation, reducing potential mess and complications during setup.
