FTTH Drop Cable Types for Indoor, Outdoor and Aerial Access | ZION

FTTH drop cable forms the final optical route from a distribution point toward the subscriber premises. ZION offers flat, round, ribbon-fiber, uni-tube and self-supporting constructions for indoor, protected outdoor and aerial access. Choose by route first, then confirm fiber category and count, strength member, sheath, dimensions, bend limits, tensile rating and installation hardware.

Which FTTH drop cable models are available?

This range includes 15 cable-only models. Compact round and flat cables suit subscriber pathways, ribbon and central-tube designs address different fiber organization needs, and self-supporting or reinforced outdoor models serve routes with greater mechanical exposure. Confirm the complete selected-version data sheet before design approval.

How do I choose an FTTH drop cable?

Start with the physical route, not the model code. Once the route is clear, choose the cable profile, strength-member system, fiber category and sheath that match the installation and local requirements.

Quick comparison by model and construction

Use the table to build a shortlist. Dimensions are product designations or named options; fiber count, tensile strength, crush resistance, temperature range, bend radius, span and sheath performance must be confirmed for the selected version.

How does the drop cable fit into an FTTH link?

The drop cable connects the access distribution side to the subscriber premises. The final indoor connection may continue through a wall outlet, splice or connectorized lead to the optical network terminal (ONT), so cable, termination and accessory choices should be planned as one system.

Where are FTTH drop cables used?

FTTH drop cables serve the final access route, but each environment places different demands on the cable. Use the application below as a starting point and validate the selected construction against the route survey.
