The DCONNECT FTTH Outdoor Drop Fiber Optic Cable is designed for durable fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) deployments and indoor/outdoor MDU connectivity. Built with bend-insensitive G.657A2 single-mode OS2 fiber, dual steel strength members, and a steel messenger wire, this outdoor fiber drop cable delivers stable performance, strong mechanical support, and safe installation with a black LSZH jacket for fire and weather protection.
The DCONNECT FTTH Outdoor Drop Fiber Optic Cable is engineered to support reliable last-mile fiber connectivity in both outdoor and indoor installation environments. It is purpose-built for modern telecom FTTH rollouts, providing dependable signal transmission from distribution points to homes, apartments, and commercial buildings.
At the core of the cable is bend-insensitive single-mode OS2 fiber (ITU-T G.657A2). This fiber technology allows efficient routing around tight corners and through constrained pathways without compromising optical performance. It ensures consistent signal integrity during outdoor-to-indoor transitions common in FTTH installations.
To deliver strong mechanical stability, the cable integrates two steel strength members for tensile reinforcement, along with a steel messenger wire that enables secure aerial drop installations. This structure supports safe pulling, suspension, and routing during deployment.
The cable is protected by a black LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath, selected for both fire safety in indoor environments and UV and weather resistance outdoors. This makes the cable suitable for combined indoor/outdoor drop installations where safety compliance and environmental durability are required.
With its flat-drop construction, reinforced steel support, and G.657A2 fiber performance, this cable provides a practical and reliable solution for FTTH outdoor drops, MDU fiber distribution, and telecom access network deployments.
The fibers within the DCONNECT FTTH Outdoor Drop Cable are designed, manufactured, and rigorously tested to meet the following international standards and compliance requirements:
IEC 60793-1 – Optical Fiber – Part 1: Generic Specification
IEC 60793-2 – Optical Fiber – Part 2: Product Specification
