Toneable Dry Type Flat Drop Cable for Underground FTTH Networks

The Toneable Dry Type Flat Drop Cable is designed for underground FTTH access networks that require reliable fiber transmission and convenient cable route identification. Integrating a 24 AWG copper tone wire with a fully dielectric flat drop cable structure, it enables technicians to quickly locate buried cable routes using standard tracing equipment.

Featuring dry water-blocking technology, dual G-FRP strength members, and an HDPE outer sheath, this cable provides excellent moisture resistance, mechanical protection, and long-term stability. It is suitable for direct buried FTTH networks, municipal broadband systems, smart city projects, and other outdoor fiber access applications.

Product description

The Toneable Dry Type Flat Drop Cable combines advanced cable locating capability with a durable FTTH drop cable design. The integrated copper tone wire allows fast underground cable detection, reducing maintenance time and excavation costs during network upgrades or repairs.

The cable uses a dry water-blocking structure instead of gel filling, providing cleaner installation and easier handling during termination. Two parallel G-FRP strength members enhance tensile strength and crush resistance, while the HDPE flat sheath provides protection against moisture, UV exposure, abrasion, and harsh outdoor conditions.

With a compact flat structure and fully dielectric design, this cable offers flexible deployment for underground fiber networks while maintaining safe and stable optical performance.
