Hone GJXFH FTTH Drop Cable with FRP Strength Member
This LSZH sheathed fiber cable is designed for indoor wiring and access networks. The FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) strength member provides excellent crush resistance and fiber protection.
Description
Hone’s FTTH cable, the GJXFH, is a butterfly drop cable featuring two parallel FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) strength members and an LSZH (low-smoke, zero-halogen) flame-retardant sheath. It is specifically designed for indoor use in FTTH (Fiber to the Home) access networks. The fiber core is located centrally within the cable, with the two FRP strength members positioned on either side. The cable is then jacketed with LSZH material.
Application
This cable is ideal for:
- FTTH drop cable applications
Features
- Small diameter, light weight, and strong practical applicability.
- Parallel FRP strength members provide good crush resistance.
- Groove 8 design allows for easy stripping of the cable sheath, simplifying installation and maintenance.
- Small bending radius and excellent flexibility for various indoor FTTH wiring environments.
- Fiber core meets or exceeds ITU G.657 standards, ensuring high cost-effectiveness.
- LSZH sheath is ideal for indoor applications and environmentally friendly.
