FTAC-Y

Interconnect Patch Cords

G657A1/2, Yellow

  • G657A1 & G657A2 bend-resistant fiber variants for safe installations
  • Compatible with G652D networks
  • Halogen-free flame-retardant material (HFFR)
  • Lowest insertion loss
  • Various connector options
  • G657A1 & G657A2 bend-resistant fiber variants for safe installations
  • Compatible with G652D networks
  • Halogen-free flame-retardant material (HFFR)
  • Lowest insertion loss
  • Various connector options

The FTAC-Y series is designed to meet the standards mainly used in access and transport termination points. Ultra Polished Connectors (UPC) and Angled Polished Connectors (APC) ensures low insertion loss and minimal back reflection.

The FTAC-Y series has an extended operating temperature range, -30ºC to +70ºC. This makes them very stable over time in various environmental conditions.

The small bend radius minimizes losses when installed or handled during installation.

The patch cords are designed with Ø 0.9 mm buffered secondary coating and have a strength member of aramid yarn. Outer jacket is made of halogen-free flame-retardant (HFFR) material giving excellent protection.
