What is GJXH bow-type FTTH drop cable
The GJXH bow-type FTTH drop cable is a flat, bow‑shaped indoor cable specifically designed for fiber‑to‑the‑home installations. It uses G652D or G657A single‑mode fibers (available in 1‑core or 2‑core versions) to provide stable, high‑bandwidth transmission, while its LSZH or PVC jacket ensures flame retardancy and environmental friendliness. Compact, lightweight, and easy to route along walls, ceilings, or conduits, the cable offers excellent flexibility and bend resistance for quick, reliable termination in tight indoor spaces.

Product Structure & Composition
The GJXH cable consists of an optical fiber unit, FRP/KFRP/steel wire as strength members, and a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket. This structure is commonly used for FTTH drop cables, providing flame retardancy, low smoke emission, and mechanical robustness.

Benefits of GJXH Bow-Type FTTH Drop Cable

Enables quick indoor routing and termination, ideal for space-constrained installations.

Flexible core options
Available in 1-core and 2-core versions, using G652D or G657A fibers for stable, high-bandwidth transmission.

Eco-friendly jacketing
LSZH or PVC jacket provides flame retardancy and low environmental impact.

Compact & lightweight design
Easy to install in tight indoor spaces without sacrificing mechanical robustness.

Product Comparison:
| Feature / Dimension | GJXH (Indoor FTTH Drop Cable) | GJFJH (Indoor Distribution Cable) |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Flat "bow‑type" (figure‑8). Two parallel steel wire or FRP strength members on both sides of the fiber core; LSZH outer sheath. Self‑contained, no central strength member. | Round cross‑section. Tight‑buffered fibers, aramid yarn strength member, central FRP strength member (optional), LSZH outer sheath. |
| Typical Applications | Indoor drop cable from floor terminal box to subscriber ONT; wall‑conduit installation; last‑meter home/office connection; point‑to‑point horizontal cabling. | Indoor backbone riser cable in multi‑floor buildings; equipment room patching; horizontal cabling for FTTB; high‑density distribution frames. |
| Fiber Core Capacity | 1 - 4 cores (up to 12 cores in some designs). | 2 - 144 cores (up to 288 cores in some designs). |
| Outer Sheath Material | LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) - flame‑retardant, low smoke, halogen‑free, UV‑resistant variant available. | LSZH - flame‑retardant, low smoke, halogen‑free. |
| Engineering Pros | •Ultra‑compact flat shape (3.0×2.0mm) fits easily into narrow conduits and wall cavities. •Very low cost, ideal for mass deployments. •Tool‑free termination &nda-ld‑installable connectors without splicing. • Excellent bend resistance (G.657) for tight corners. •LSZH sheath meets fire safety codes. | •High fiber count (up to 144 cores) supports dense backbone runs. •High tensile strength (660N short‑term) for long vertical riser pulls. • Individual 900μm tight‑buffered fibers allow direct connector termination. •Aramid yarn reinforcement resists stretching under heavy loads. • LSZH sheath provides flame‑retardancy. |
| Engineering Cons | • Low tensile strength (80N short‑term) - easily damaged if pulled too hard. •Very limited fiber count (≤4 cores typical). •Flat shape may twist in long conduit runs, increasing pulling resistance. • Not suitable for vertical backbone runs over multiple floors. •Requires careful slack management at termination points. | • Larger diameter (8‑12mm) and stiffer - harder to route in narrow conduits. • Higher cost per fiber compared to GJXH for low core counts. • Aramid yarns can be messy to strip and manage during termination. •Requires more installation skill and specialized tools. •Over‑specified for simple point‑to‑point home runs. |
| Flame Retardancy | LSZH - low smoke, halogen‑free, flame‑retardant. Suitable for indoor riser/plenum spaces. | LSZH - low smoke, halogen‑free, flame‑retardant. Suitable for indoor riser/plenum spaces. |
| Cost (Relative) | Low - simple construction with minimal material use. | Medium - aramid yarn reinforcement increases material and manufacturing cost. |
| Installation / Termination | Easy stripping via groove design, tool‑free termination possible with field‑installable connectors. | Requires stripping multiple layers; individual 900μm fibers, aramid yarn management, and connector/ splicing termination. |
GJXH Bow-Type FTTH Drop Cable Selection Guide
Choose GJXH for:
Final‑meter drop to subscriber premise (FTTH last‑mile), horizontal cabling from floor distributor to ONT/outlet, wall‑conduit or surface‑mount installation in single homes or offices, point‑to‑point connections within a single floor, and applications that prioritize low‑cost, simple, fast termination.
Choose GJFJH for:
Building backbone riser vertical distribution (e.g., basement IDF to multi‑floor telecommunications rooms), high‑density multi‑floor runs requiring 12–144 cores (e.g., MDUs, hotels, office towers), equipment room patching between ODFs/switches/servers, and installation where higher tensile strength (660N) is needed for long vertical pulls in cable shafts.
Mixed deployment strategy:
Use GJFJH for backbone riser vertical runs, then transition to GJXH at each floor for horizontal drops to subscriber units. This balances higher tensile strength for backbone with lower cost and easy termination for last‑meter cabling.
GJXH Installation Instructions (Brief):
Route the cable – Use the bow-type flat structure to easily run along walls, corners, or inside conduits without special tools.
Strip the jacket – Remove the LSZH/PVC outer sheath carefully to expose the optical fiber and strength members (FRP/KFRP/steel wire).
Secure strength members – Clamp the steel wire or FRP/KFRP to the connector or termination box for strain relief.
Terminate the fiber – Clean and cleave the fiber (G652D/G657A), then insert into a field-installable connector or splice to a pigtail.
Test the link – Verify insertion loss and return loss before final closure.
