Single LSZH Outer Jacket Fiber Optic Cable with Subunits
- FTTH & FTTx subscriber network connections
- ODF connections
- Distribution network
- Easy indoor deployment, inside house OLT connection
Q1: What is the primary application for a Single LSZH Outer Jacket Cable with Subunits?
A: This cable is engineered for high-density indoor backbone and horizontal distribution environments, such as data centers, central offices, and multi-dwelling commercial buildings. The subunit design allows clean organizing and routing of high-fiber-count (24 to 144 fibers) infrastructure within tight risers, ducts, and cable trays.
Q2: What is the advantage of the Subunit design in this indoor fiber cable?
A: Subunits group fibers into color-coded 12-fiber tubes (0.079 in / 2.0 mm) with aramid yarns. This modular structure simplifies cable management, speeds up termination/splicing at distribution frames, and protects individual fiber bundles when breaking out cables at different floors or rack locations.
Q3: What is the difference between LSOH and LSZH?
A: There is no functional difference. Both terms—LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)—refer to the exact same flame-retardant jacket material. They are used interchangeably in European, Latin American, and global telecom specifications. During combustion, LSZH materials emit minimal smoke and zero corrosive halogen gases (complying with IEC 60754-1/2), ensuring human safety and protecting electronic equipment.
Q4: Is this fiber optic cable completely non-metallic (Dielectric)?
A: Yes, the cable features a fully dielectric construction utilizing a Central FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) rod as the central strength member and dielectric aramid yarns inside the subunits. This eliminates the need for electrical grounding or bonding, making it safe and immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI) near power distribution paths.
Q5: How does the SZ-stranding design benefit installation?
A: SZ-reverse oscillating stranding allows easy mid-span access to individual subunits without cutting the entire cable core. Technicians can strip the outer LSZH jacket, access a specific 12-fiber subunit for splicing, and route the remaining sub-units through without disrupting active channels.
