Overview
The Zeus 2F Flat Drop SM Toneable ZTAP Connector-Pigtail is a high-performance fiber optic assembly designed for reliable last-mile connectivity in FTTX (Fiber to the X) network deployments. This assembly features a 2-fiber, singlemode, flat drop cable construction equipped with a toneable wire, facilitating easier location and identification of the cable path during underground installations.
Engineered for durability and rapid deployment, this pigtail configuration streamlines connection processes in the field. The inclusion of the ZTAP connector technology supports efficient integration into existing network infrastructures, ensuring consistent signal integrity across outside plant environments.
Key Features
-
Singlemode Fiber Construction

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary benefit of the toneable feature?
The toneable wire allows technicians to locate the buried cable path using a standard utility locator, preventing accidental damage during future construction.
Is this cable suitable for direct burial?
The flat drop cable construction is engineered to meet the demands of outside plant environments, including traditional FTTX burial applications.
What does the 2F designation mean?
It indicates that the cable contains two individual optical fibers, allowing for two independent signals or a primary and backup path.
Are the connectors pre-installed?
Yes, this is a connectorized pigtail assembly, meaning it arrives with ZTAP connectors already installed on the ends for immediate deployment.
Can this be used for indoor and outdoor applications?
This cable is specifically designed for outdoor, outside plant (OSP) applications, such as the drop from the terminal to the home.
