Fiber and Drop Assemblies
Recognizing that no two networks are alike, Clearfield has developed the industry’s widest choice of drop cable solutions – speeding deployments and providing the flexibility of configuration that best suits your network environment, network design and drop cable needs.
Utilizing factory terminated connectors, all FieldShield® Drop Cables provide plug-and-play connectivity. When the assembly is equipped with a FieldShield FlexConnector, gone are the days of proprietary connections. The FlexConnector allows every size and type of last mile drop cable to interconnect the YOURx-Terminal and the YOURx-TAP.
Whether you choose to push or pull the fiber into the FieldShield® Microduct, the PBT jacket of Clearfield's FieldShield Pushable Fiber easily slips through the microduct's smooth inner wall. Utilizing OFS bend-insensitive glass, FieldShield Pushable Fiber is available in a variety of fiber counts: 1 to 12 fibers in a 3mm jacket and up to 24 fibers in a 4mm jacket.
Deployed in the OSP, FieldShield StrongFiber becomes the first 900um OSP drop cable. User may specify standard connectors or FieldShield Pushable Connectors that enable FieldShield StrongFiber to be easily pulled through FieldShield Ruggedized Microduct. Teamed with spooling technology incorporated into FieldShield’s StrongFiber Deploy Reel, StrongFiber drop cables of up to 300 feet are shipped on a 4.5” x 1” reel with integrated bulkhead and pre-mated adapter that can be easily mounted into a small form factor fiber management element of choice, from customer wall boxes, demarcation points, pedestals and cabinets to SFU/MDU environments. StrongFiber as an ISP cable reduces pre-engineering and on-site installation time for MDU and Riser deployments.
