FAQ
Q1: What is the main structural design and application of the FTTH Round Drop Cable 3mm?
A: The FTTH-RDP is a 3.0 mm round drop cable designed for FTTH (Fiber to the Home) subscriber access networks. It features a tight-buffered fiber positioned at the center, flanked by parallel steel strength members for tensile durability, and encased in a black or colored LSZH outer jacket.
Q2: What key features make this 3mm round drop cable ideal for indoor/outdoor drop deployments?
A: Outstanding features include:
- Bend-Insensitive Performance: Utilizes G.657A1 single-mode optical fiber for tight bend tolerance, enabling wider bandwidth and reliable data transmission.
- Steel Reinforcement: Parallel steel strength members shield the central fiber and provide excellent tensile properties.
- Easy Installation: Unique groove design allows fast stripping, effortless junctioning, and simplified cable prep.
- Eco-Friendly LSZH Jacket: Low-smoke zero-halogen outer jacket offers flame retardancy and safety for indoor routing.
Q3: What are the physical dimensions and mechanical ratings of this cable?
A: Key physical specifications include:
- Cable Diameter: 3.0 mm
- Cable Weight: 16 kg/km
- Tensile Strength: 100 N long-term / 200 N short-term
- Crush Resistance: 100 N/100m long-term / 300 N/100m short-term
- Bending Radius: 15D static / 30D dynamic
Q4: Who manufactures this 3mm drop cable and what is its reference price?
A: Manufactured by FirstFiber Technologies, the cable is printed with FIRSTFIBER TECHNOLOGIES DROP CABLE 1C G.657A1 SM LSZH and carries a reference price of $0.7 USD.
Q5: How can I select options and request a volume quotation?
A: You can select your required fiber core count, fiber type (G.652D, G.657A1/A2, OM1–OM5), jacket material (PVC/LSZH), strength member (Steel/Kevlar), and custom cable length on the product page, then click “Add to Quote” for volume pricing or “Request a Demo” for sample evaluation.
