Figure 8 fiber optic drop cable is a type of fiber optic drop cable commonly used in outdoor environments. This kind of optical cable has a special structural design that allows it to be easily hung between telephone poles or buildings. It usually takes on a shape like the number “8″, hence the name Figure 8 optical cable.
Figure-8 Messenger Cable consists of a central fiber optic unit, strong supports, jackets, and possibly reinforcement materials. The central fiber optic unit is the core of the Figure 8 fiber optic cable, which contains the core for optical transmission and the cladding that protects it.
Jera Line produce following type:
1. Figure 8 drop with steel wire strand
2. Figure 8 drop with steel wire
3. Figure 8 drop with FRP
The design of FTTH Figure 8 optical drop cable makes it ideal for fiber optic network applications in outdoor environments. Its structure allows it to be easily hung between telephone poles or buildings, reducing the use of ground and installation work, thus saving time and costs. Secondly, Figure 8 optical cable has good weather resistance and tensile strength, and can maintain stable performance under harsh weather conditions and is not affected by temperature, humidity and wind. In addition, Figure 8 optical cable also has a smaller diameter and weight, which is more convenient during installation and maintenance, reducing the difficulty and risk of engineering construction.
