Indoor vs Outdoor FTTH Drop Cable: What Buyers Should Confirm Before Ordering
Understand the difference between GJXH, GJXFH, GJYXCH and GJYXFCH drop cable for subscriber access projects.
Indoor drop cable
Indoor FTTH drop cable is normally used inside buildings, apartments and user premises. Buyers usually check jacket material, fiber count, strength member and bending performance.
Outdoor drop cable
Outdoor drop cable is used from distribution points to homes or buildings. Self-supporting structures such as GJYXCH and GJYXFCH help with aerial last-mile installation.
Steel wire or FRP
Steel wire gives strong support, while FRP is non-metallic and can be preferred in some environments. The right choice depends on installation method and local project requirements.
What buyers should not ignore
Drop cable is often purchased together with clamps, fast connectors, terminal boxes or distribution boxes. Confirming the accessories together reduces missing items during installation.
Data to compare
Buyers usually compare fiber type, cable size, strength member, jacket material, reel length, bending performance, color, printing and whether the cable is easy to strip on site.
Quotation checklist
Confirm model, fiber type, fiber count, cable color, reel length, printing, quantity and whether clamps or fast connectors are required together.
