OptiTap SC/APC Toneable Flat Drop Cable 9/125 G.657.A1 PE Jacket 3M

This OptiTap SC/APC toneable flat drop cable is engineered for robust and efficient FTTH last-mile connectivity. Built with OS2 single-mode 9/125μm G.657.A1 bend-insensitive fiber, it delivers stable optical performance even in tight bending environments, making it ideal for aerial, duct, and direct burial access network deployments.

The flat drop design combined with a durable PE (Polyethylene) jacket ensures excellent mechanical protection and weather resistance for outdoor use. Integrated SC/APC OptiTap-compatible connectors provide fast, plug-and-play installation, reducing field splicing time and improving deployment efficiency. The toneable feature allows easy cable locating, making maintenance and network tracing more convenient in complex installations. OEM customization is available for length, connectors, and branding.
