Dielectric & Toneable Flat Drop Cable
Flat out the easiest fiber drop cable to handle, access and terminate.
Draka’s ezDROP | Flat version provides easy FTTx (Fiber-To-The­X) installation and termination using existing hardware and methods for drops to homes and businesses. Its flat profile is compatible with economical wedge clamps for self-support aerial spans up to 300 feet, depending on environmental loading. An all-dielectric version eliminates the need for bonding and grounding. A toneable version adds a 24 AWG conductor that provides underground location capa­bility, attached by a web for easy tear-away separation from the cable — the most popular option for underground and multi-purpose installation. Portable boxes and spools simplify widespread deployment, and preconnectorized ezDROP cables enable plug & play connectivity for quick subscriber additions. Draka’s exclusive BendBright fiber provides craft-friendly bend tolerance over the entire singlemode wavelength spectrum.
