Drop Cable FTTH 2 Core 2KM
A Drop Cable FTTH 2 Core (2km) is a flat, lightweight, and durable fiber optic cable designed specifically for Fiber to the Home (FTTH) applications. It is used for the last-mile connection from a distribution box or terminal to the customer's premises. The 2-core configuration provides one or two service connections and is typically supplied in 2-kilometer spools for bulk deployment in outdoor and indoor environments.
