UnitekFiber's 6 fibers multimode OM4 FTTH drop cable delivers reliable high speed data transmission in short distance. With a compact 5.2mm diameter, it’s easy to install in tight spaces while meeting demanding network performance needs. Featuring 0.9mm tight buffer, the FTTH drop cable allows for direct connector termination without the need for additional buffer tubes or splice trays, simplifying installation and reducing labor costs. Come with PVC jacket with Riser rating, the FTTH drop cable can prevent flames from spreading through vertical channels such as building shafts and elevator shafts to other floors in case of fire. Suitable for data centers, backbone cabling, Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) wiring or ect.
4.0mm/5.2mm/6.2mm round fiber optic drop cable typically consists of 1 to 48cores 0.9mm tight buffer, strength members (such as aramid yarn or glass yarn) and all encased in a protective outer jacket. The structure of indoor outdoor FTTH fiber optic drop cable is designed for durability and ease of installation, with the buffer protecting the fragile fibers and the aramid yarn providing tensile strength for pulling the FTTH drop cable without damage.
UnitekFiber's FTTH drop cable offers multiple jacket optional, such as PE, LSZH, PVC, PVC-OFNR and highest fire resistance PVC-OFNP. If low smoke and non-toxic emissions are a primary consideration, then the LSZH outer sheath can be selected. OFNR designed for vertical runs, and OFNP designed for plenum runs. In addition to providing customized jacket, UnitekFiber as a manufacturer, we can also offer customized jacket colors to support your fiber optic business.
By using OM4 fiber, the indoor outdoor drop cable designed for very high speeds, capable of supporting data rates up to 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps over short distances typically found within a data center or campus backbone. This makes it future proof for evolving network demands. The aramid yarn as a strength members provide physical protection for the fiber. With 5.2mm OD with a 0.9mm tight buffer, the indoor outdoor drop cable is relatively small for a 6fiber cable, which is durability, flexibility, and ease of installation, making it lightweight and easy to route through conduits, trays, and tight spaces within a building infrastructure.
The 0.9mm tight buffer design of round FTTH drop cable simplifies stripping and termination. So it’s an excellent base materials for manufacturing pre-terminated fiber optic patch cords and pigtails, and used for connecting communication equipment. Meanwhile, FTTH drop cable is also using in data center for for connections between servers, switches, storage systems, and patch panels within equipment rooms and data centers.
PVC Riser Rating is certified for use in riser spaces of buildings. Riser spaces are vertical shafts that run between floors. This rating ensures the cable meets fire safety standards, including limited flame spread and smoke generation, to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through vertical building channels.
No, this drop cable is not designed for direct burial.
The installation tensile strength of 6fiber FTTH drop cable is 300N, and 150N for long term.
The drop cable has an outer diameter of 4.0mm for 2fiber, 5.2mm for 6fiber, 6.2mm for 12fiber.
We offer all kinds of singlemode and multimode fiber. Single mode fiber are used for long-distance transmission (several kilometers) with high bandwidth, ideal for FTTH or long-haul campus networks. Multimode fiber are suitable for shorter distances (up to a few hundred meters) in local area networks (LANs).
The indoor outdoor fiber drop cable’s performance has been rock solid, with consistent speeds for all our applications. We’re using 3 cores for data, 2 for VoIP, and 1 as a spare—plenty of capacity without overspending on more cores than we need.
This indoor outdoor drop cable got caught on a few sharp edges, but the jacket didn’t tear or fray. It’s greater than some budget cables I’ve used, which gives it extra protection against accidental damage.
My customer routing cable around equipment racks and tight corners can be a pain, but this cable’s flexibility makes it easy. It bends without causing signal loss (thanks to G657A1’s bend-insensitive properties), so we didn’t have to worry about kinking or damaging the fibers during installation.
We installed a section of this drop cable with PE jacket, and along the side of our building, exposed to rain and direct sunlight. After a month of heavy storms, the cable is still performing perfectly. The jacket shows no signs of degradation, and the signal quality is just as good as day one.
The drop cable arrived quickly, and it was packaged in a sturdy spool that prevented tangling during unboxing. Unrolling it was smooth, and we didn’t have any issues with kinks that would affect performance. Great customer service too, they answered my questions promptly before ordering.
