Access Networks: FieldSmart FDP Cable Assemblies


Ruggedized Jumpers

These jumpers are ideal when splicing FTTH drops in the ONT/NID. Indoor cordage stiffens and retains cable memory in cold weather. These jumpers remain flexible even in extreme conditions. These assemblies also use bend-insensitive fiber to help eliminate bend radius issues inside the NID. These patch cords also work well in OSP cross-connect cabinets.

Clearfield’s Ruggedized OSP Jumpers can be ordered in any industry standard connector type. Custom lengths available upon request.

  • Provides greater flexibility and resists sagging over traditional fiber optic

  • Ruggedized OSP rated patch cords remain flexible and durable whether the temperature outside is -55 °C to 85 °C which exceeds Telcordia standards
  • Ruggedized polyurethane material resists sagging in temperature extremes
  • GR-326 tested termination assures optical performance stability throughout the lifetime of the terminations and helps make

FTTH Drop Cable

Your customers deserve the same quality of connection as the central office and the OSP.

Clearfield has you covered here, too. Our fiber Drop Cable Assemblies are designed to connect the fiber access point (hand hole, pedestal or aerial) to the ONT on the home in a FTTH network.

Clearfield’s proven Ruggedized Drop Cable solutions include HFOC, Ruggedized Flat Drop, and Ruggedized Pigtail for splicing.

  • Flat drop cable construction can be pulled through conduit, direct buried, or aerially lashed
  • All-dielectric construction allows deployment near power lines on utility poles
  • For splicing pigtails to drop cable applications, jacket material uses rugged construction to remain flexible and resist sagging at all temperatures
  • Toneable cables allow for traceability
  • Hybrid configurations available
  • Custom length
