Why choose the Toneable Flat Drop Cable?
Designed specifically for your below-grade installations, self-supporting, direct-buried and duct installations, the Toneable Flat Drop Cable provides locatability and easy handling. The buffer tube fiber core offers fast access with a familiar, easy-to-handle design. Leveraging the same proven sheath design of the aerial, all-dielectric Flat Drop Cable, the Toneable Flat Drop Cable adds an easily separable 24 AWG copper wire. This toning wire is compatible with commercial outside plant (OSP) cable locating equipment, and is easily peeled away from the main cable sheath at termination points so that the wire can be routed to a grounding point inside or outside the network terminal or cable closure. Minimizing the effort required to bond and ground the toning wire is key to reducing labor in the field, and the removal of the wire can be easily done by hand, without special tools.
Toneable Cable Description:
The Toneable Flat Drop Cable Dry Type is designed for self-supporting, direct-buried and duct installations. Fully dielectric design, ideal for drop applications, offering ease of access as well as easy installation. Single loose tube which provides great mechanical properties under a wide range of conditions such as crush test and impact test. Dry water blocking technology allows a cleaner and quicker installation as well as a cost-friendly cable preparation.
PE single jacket with additives makes a resistant, durable and easy to strip cable, providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion and other environmental factors.
Two parallel dielectric strength members that require no bonding or grounding, offering exceptional crush resistance.
A 24 AWG copper wire is aligned along the outside edge of one of the fiberglass rods to provide locatability. This Copper toning conductor allows effortless detection in direct-buried installation.
