FAQ
Q1: What is the main structural design and application of the GJXFH FTTH Flat Drop Cable?
A: The GJXFH (FTTH-ODC) is a compact flat drop cable engineered for FTTH subscriber drop networks. It houses a central optical fiber unit protected by two parallel Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) strength members on either side and is encased in a flame-retardant LSZH outer sheath.
Q2: What key features make this flat drop cable ideal for subscriber drops?
A: Key features include:
- Bend-Insensitive Performance: Uses G.657A low-bend-sensitivity fiber for high-bandwidth and reliable signal transmission in tight spaces.
- High Crush Protection: Dual parallel FRP strength members safeguard the central fibers against mechanical pressure.
- Simplified Maintenance: Novel flute design allows easy jacket stripping and fast field splicing.
- Fire-Retardant LSZH Jacket: Low-smoke zero-halogen jacket ensures environmental safety for indoor/outdoor transition paths.
Q3: What core capacities, dimensions, and weights are available?
A: All core configurations share a uniform 2.0 × 5.0 mm outer cross-section. Physical weights by core capacity include:
- 1, 2 & 4 Cores: 20 kg/km weight
- 6 Cores: 21 kg/km weight
- 8 Cores: 23 kg/km weight
- 12 Cores: 25 kg/km weight
Q4: What are the mechanical strength ratings and industry standards compliance?
A: Performance specifications and compliance parameters include:
- Standards: Complies with YD/T 1997-2009.
- Tensile Strength: 100 N long-term / 200 N short-term.
- Crush Resistance: 1000 N/100m long-term / 2200 N/100m short-term.
- Bending Radius: 15D static / 30D dynamic.
Q5: Who manufactures the GJXFH cable and how do I place a bulk inquiry?
A: Manufactured by FirstFiber Technologies, the GJXFH flat drop cable carries a reference price starting at $0.2 USD. You can configure your core count (1–12), fiber type (G.652D, G.657A1/A2, OM1–OM5), sheath material, strength member (FRP/Steel/Kevlar), and length on the product page, then click “Add to Quote” for volume pricing or “Request a Demo” for sample evaluation.
