The 2FO (1x2) Drop Flex Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.657.A1 FR-LSZH Black (Part number: K1F20T1002BN0J/1) from KDP with 2FO. Drop cable is a light weight, robust cable, used in optical networks, where the installation is up to the customer premises.
The 2FO (1x2) Drop Flex Tube Fiber Optic Cable SM G.657.A1 FR-LSZH Black from KDP is a Drop cable with 2 FR-LSZH buffered optical fibre (with one fiber each) within one FR-LSZH outer sheath. This duplex distribution cable as aramid yarn to prevent the progression of water inside the cable . The optical fibers comply with ITU-T recomendations G.657.A1.

Each type of single-mode fiber has its own area of application, and the evolution of these optical fiber specifications reflects the evolution of transmission system technology from the earliest installation of single-mode optical fiber to the present day. Choose the right fiber is very important for each project/installation. The OS2 G.657 standard single-mode fibers were developed to allow a better bending radius regarding the G.652 standard. For the OS2 G.657 fiber there are 4 subcategories: G.657.A1, G.657.A2, G.657.B2, G.657.B3. The G.657.A1 fiber type is characterized by 10 mm minimum bending radius. These specifications of the G.657 fibers allow to have a better cost-efficiency due to compact cable designs and reduced space requirements.
While using a flex tube construction in cables, you can:
The cable flex tube construction solution can be chosen for the following applications:
HFFR (halogen-free, flame-retardant) is a jacket material that offers excellent fire protection and reduced smoke emission in the event of a fire. It is designed to be environmentally friendly and safe for human health, as it does not contain halogens or heavy metals. HFFR is highly resistant to moisture and chemicals, making it suitable for harsh and demanding environments. However, it may be more expensive than other materials, and it may have a lower temperature rating, which may limit its use in certain applications.
Single mode fiber uses a LASER light source, is a type of optical fiber with a small core diameter that allows only one mode of light to propagate. It is used in telecommunications and data transmission systems to transmit signals over long distances with low attenuation and high bandwidth. Single mode fiber is ideal for high-speed and long-distance applications, such as internet backbone networks, cable television networks, and fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) services. Its narrow core reduces the dispersion of light, allowing signals to travel further and faster than with multimode fiber.
