Overview
The Zeus line of factory-terminated drop cable assemblies is designed to streamline FTTx installations. These pre-terminated fiber optic cables simplify the deployment process, allowing technicians to complete drops by performing two fusion splices and connecting the integrated plug to a Network Interface Device (NID).
Constructed with Corning® SMF-28® Ultra singlemode fiber, this non-toneable, flat drop assembly offers high-performance optical characteristics suitable for outdoor plant environments. The assembly includes a single factory-terminated Corning® OptiTap® connector, providing a reliable interface for rapid fiber-to-the-home deployments.
