Q1: What is an FTTR air blow fiber optic cable assembly?
FTTR (Fiber-to-the-Room) air blow cables are ultra-compact fibers designed to be easily installed through small conduits or tubing using compressed air, ideal for high-density residential or office deployments.
Q2: Which connector types are available for these assemblies?
LC and APC connectors are available, providing low insertion loss and high return loss suitable for FTTR networks.
Q3: How many cores can these assemblies support?
They are available with 1 to 4 cores, allowing flexibility for single or multiple service connections.
Q4: What jacket materials are used?
LSZH jackets are standard for indoor safety, minimizing smoke and toxicity in case of fire.
Q5: How are these fiber assemblies tested?
Each assembly undergoes 100% insertion loss and return loss testing to ensure compliance with industry standards before shipment.
Q6: Can these assemblies be customized?
Yes. Length, jacket color, connector type, and labeling can be customized according to project requirements.
Q7: What is the typical application of FTTR air blow assemblies?
They are ideal for in-building FTTR deployments, connecting apartments or offices with minimal installation effort and maximum space efficiency.
Q8: What is the standard delivery time?
Standard lengths are usually available for immediate shipment, while customized orders typically require 3–7 working days.
