Product Description

1. Product Overview

This patch cord is assembled with self-supporting aerial FTTH drop cable, used as the final connecting component in FTTH deployment. It is widely applied between face plates, terminal boxes, ONU, and communication equipment, suitable for building access and premises distribution systems. The fiber unit is centered with two parallel FRP strength members and LSZH outer sheath, featuring easy stripping, splicing, and installation.

2. Cable Structure

Profile: Figure 8 flat self-supporting structure

Fiber unit: Centered single-mode fiber
