Low-fiber-count design is intended for FTTH last-mile connections; confirm the final fiber count for the project.
Steel messenger provides self-supporting capability between poles without a separate support strand.
G.657A2 bend-insensitive fiber ensures reliable performance in tight installation spaces.
For an FRP strength-member variant with steel messenger support, review GJYXFCH.

Citable Specification Notes

Operating temperature: Confirm the required outdoor temperature range against the approved datasheet and project specification.
Bend radius: Confirm installation and operating bend limits against the final cable diameter, fiber type, and approved datasheet.
Steel messenger wire: Confirm messenger size, span, loading conditions, and installation route in the approved project specification.
Water blocking: Confirm water-blocking materials and acceptance criteria in the project specification.

Product Structure

GJYXCH outdoor self-supporting FTTH drop cable structure

GJYXCH is an outdoor self-supporting FTTH drop cable with a figure-8 profile and steel messenger wire. It is designed for short outdoor subscriber drop routes, pole-to-building access, and last-mile FTTH connections where the cable needs its own support member.

Central optical fiberBend-insensitive fiber supports outdoor-to-building FTTH drop routing and subscriber access paths.
Steel messenger wireThe messenger provides self-supporting strength for short aerial drop installation.
Outdoor sheathOutdoor jacket protects the drop cable body in exposed access routes before building entry.

Layer	Component	Material / Function
1	Optical fiber	G.657A1 / G.657A2 / G.652D according to project requirement.
2	Drop cable body	Bow-type FTTH drop cable body for subscriber-side access.
3	Messenger wire	Steel messenger for self-supporting short aerial drop routes.
4	Outer sheath	Outdoor sheath for pole-to-building and access network installation.

General Optical Performance

Fiber Type	Typical Attenuation	Application Note
G.657A1	Confirm the fiber category and acceptance limit in the approved fiber and cable specification.	FTTH drop routes where bend performance is required.
G.657A2	Confirm the fiber category and acceptance limit in the approved fiber and cable specification.	Recommended for tighter routing near subscriber entry points.
G.652D	Confirm the fiber category and acceptance limit in the approved fiber and cable specification.	Available when project design requires standard single-mode fiber.

Key Features

Self-Supporting Drop Route

Steel messenger supports short outdoor aerial drop routes from pole or terminal point to building entry.

FTTH Last-Mile Access

Designed for subscriber-side outdoor access connections in residential and small commercial FTTH networks.

Figure-8 Profile

Integrated messenger and drop cable body simplify short aerial FTTH drop installation.

Bend-Insensitive Fiber

Compatible with G.657 series fibers for outdoor-to-building routing and access paths.

Outdoor Protection

Outdoor sheath supports exposed access routes before the cable enters the building.

Project Customization

Fiber count, fiber type, messenger requirement, sheath, packing length, and connector options can be confirmed per order.

GJXFH	Indoor FRP flat drop	Protected indoor all-dielectric FTTH routes	Use for indoor non-metallic subscriber-side routing.

Application Scenarios

FTTH Subscriber Drop

Outdoor drop route from distribution point to subscriber premises.

Pole-to-Building Route

Self-supporting outdoor access route between pole and building entry point.

Building Entry

Outdoor-to-building access section before indoor routing begins.

Last-Mile Access

Short outdoor FTTH access links in residential or small commercial networks.

Wall Box Connection

Connection from outdoor terminal box to wall-mounted access point.

Custom Drop Route

Used where the project drawing calls for self-supporting outdoor FTTH drop cable.

When to Select GJYXCH Instead of a Similar FTTH Drop Cable

GJYXCH is intended for a short outdoor self-supporting subscriber drop where the route and drawing call for a steel messenger. Define the pole-to-building path, support points, building-entry transition, and installation length before approving the cable. It should not be treated as a substitute for an indoor drop cable after the route becomes protected, or for an ADSS design where longer span and separate engineering inputs govern the cable selection.

Choose GJYXCH when

The FTTH access section is a short aerial route and the specified self-supporting design uses a steel messenger.

Review another model when

A steel messenger with FRP strength members points to GJYXFCH; protected indoor routing after entry points to GJXH or GJXFH; longer-span all-dielectric engineering requires an ADSS review.

Approve before production

Confirm support-point spacing, route exposure, messenger requirement, fiber type, sheath, installation length, building-entry detail, and final termination method.

FAQ About GJYXCH Outdoor Self-Supporting FTTH Drop Cable

Q: What is GJYXCH used for?

GJYXCH is used for outdoor self-supporting FTTH drop routes, pole-to-building access, wall-mounted subscriber routes, and last-mile access links.

Q: What is the messenger wire used for?

The steel messenger provides support for self-supporting outdoor drop installation. Final messenger size and route suitability should be confirmed from span, clamps, and project requirements.

Q: What fiber types are available?

G.657A1, G.657A2, or G.652D fibers can be reviewed according to the project requirement. G.657 series fibers are commonly selected for FTTH drop cable routing.

Q: What is the difference between GJYXCH and GJYXFCH?

Both are outdoor self-supporting FTTH drop cable options with steel messenger support. GJYXCH uses steel wire strength members in the drop cable body, while GJYXFCH uses parallel FRP strength members.

Q: Can GJYXCH be used for aerial routes?

GJYXCH is an FTTH drop cable, not a long-span trunk aerial cable. For longer aerial routes, review ADSS or figure-8 outdoor cable options according to span and route conditions.

Q: What should I send for quotation?

Send the drawing if available, fiber count, fiber type, sheath material, messenger requirement, route span, packing length, quantity, and any connector or labeling requirement.
