The GJXFH Butterfly Drop Cable is an all-dielectric optical fiber cable specifically engineered for indoor and last-mile Access Networks in FTTH (Fiber to the Home) deployments. Designed with non-metallic strength members and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket, the GJXFH cable offers exceptional flexibility, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and enhanced fire safety.
Key Technical Advantages
All-Dielectric Non-Metallic Structure: Utilizes non-metallic FRP/KFRP strength members, eliminating the need for electrical grounding and effectively preventing lightning strikes and electromagnetic interference.
Superior Bending Performance: Optimized for G.657 bend-insensitive single-mode fibers, ensuring minimal signal attenuation even when routed through tight corners or micro-conduits.
Flame Retardant & Eco-Friendly: The LSZH outer sheath emits low smoke and zero toxic halogen gases during combustion, adhering to strict indoor fire safety standards.
Easy Stripping & Termination: The flat butterfly design allows quick, effortless stripping of the outer jacket and seamless field assembly with mechanical fast connectors or fusion splices.
Typical Applications
FTTH / FTTD Networks: Last-mile indoor entry wiring for residential homes, multi-dwelling units (MDUs), and commercial offices.
Indoor Premise Cabling: Horizontal and vertical cabling inside building shafts, conduits, trunking, and surface-mounted wall tracks.
Terminal Interconnection: Patching between optical distribution frames (ODF), fiber terminal boxes, and Optical Network Units (ONU).
Installation & Handling Guidelines
Bending Radius Control: Maintain a minimum static bending radius of 15 mm and a dynamic bending radius of 30 mm during installation to prevent macrobending loss.
Mechanical Stress Limits: Ensure tensile loads do not exceed 600 N short-term during pulling operations and remain under 300 N long-term once fixed.
Field Termination: Use standard FTTH drop cable stripping tools and optical fiber cleavers for precise preparation when installing pre-embedded fast connectors or performing fusion splicing.

FAQ
Q: Can the GJXFH Butterfly Drop Cable be used for outdoor overhead installations?
A: While the LSZH jacket provides good weather resistance, the GJXFH cable is designed primarily for indoor routing and short-distance entry. For self-supporting aerial outdoor runs over longer distances, a figure-8 cable with an additional messenger wire (such as GJYXCH or GJYXFCH) is recommended to withstand wind loads and external stress.
Q: What storage and operating temperatures can this cable withstand?
A: The cable operates reliably within a temperature range of -20°C to +60°C (storage/transportation from -40°C to +70°C). This wide thermal envelope ensures stable performance in varying climate conditions inside building ducts or non-climate-controlled riser rooms.
Q: What is the estimated service life of the GJXFH cable?
A: Under standard operating conditions and when installed within the specified bending radius and tensile limits, the cable has a design service life of 20 to 25 years.
Q: Does the cable require special tools for on-site cable preparation?
A: No complex machinery is needed. Standard FTTH installer toolkits-including a dedicated butterfly drop cable wire stripper, Kevlar scissors, high-precision fiber cleaver, and alcohol wipes-are fully sufficient for quick outer jacket removal and fiber exposure.
Q: Is the black LSZH outer sheath UV resistant?
A: Yes, the black LSZH compound contains carbon black additives that offer natural UV stabilization, protecting the cable against aging when exposed to sunlight near windows, balconies, or open conduit entry points.
Q: Can this cable be directly stapled or nailed to indoor walls?
A: Direct nailing through the cable body is strongly discouraged as it damages the internal fiber and strength members. Instead, use dedicated flat drop cable clips, adhesive trunking, or surface-mounted cable raceways to secure it along walls.
Q: What fiber coating diameter is used inside the GJXFH cable?
A: The primary optical fibers inside feature a standard 250 µm UV-curable acrylate coating, which simplifies color identification and ensures immediate compatibility with standard fiber holders, mechanical splice trays, and fusion splicer V-grooves.
