MOQ / lead: MOQ 1 pc, about 5 days; custom builds and volume orders agreed on request

Configuration Options

• Outer jacket — PVC blue, cost-effective indoor general purpose; LSZH black, low-smoke for enclosed / public indoor spaces; TPU black, best abrasion, oil and low-temperature resistance for industrial and harsh runs.
• Spiral armor — a flexible (not rigid) stainless steel spiral that resists crushing, twisting and rodent damage while following normal routing bends.
• Breakout legs — 2.0 mm standard; equal-length legs for same-side patch fields.
• Numbering & labels — legs bundled and numbered to your port schedule; custom labels / tags on request.
• Ends & length — connectors at both ends as standard (one end bare for in-box splicing on request); overall and leg lengths built to your requirement; pulling eye, furcation tubing and reel packaging on request.

Typical Applications

• Under-floor and cabinet-to-cabinet trunks exposed to foot traffic, pressure or tight cable management.
• Industrial equipment and plant-floor wiring subject to abrasion, oil and mechanical contact.
• FTTH indoor backbone, riser and cabinet cross-connection needing added protection.
• Surveillance / security and low-voltage (ELV) optical links.
• Routing where crush or rodent damage is a known risk.
• Boundary: for a standard, lighter and more economical indoor breakout use XHT-D03; for an MPO parallel-port breakout use XHT-D02. This assembly is intended for indoor / industrial and short transition routing, not direct-burial or long outdoor aerial plant — confirm a dedicated outdoor cable for those positions.

Quality You Can Verify

• Factory-terminated under controlled epoxy, cure and polish process — consistent end-face finish versus field splicing.
• End faces inspected for cleanliness and defects per IEC 61300-3-35, then cleaned and sealed with dust caps.
• Armor continuity, leg numbering and fan-out checked against your port schedule.
• Standard, non-OEM connectors interoperate with standard adapters and panels.

FAQ

Q1. Armored breakout (D04) or standard mini breakout (D03)? Choose D04 where the route faces crushing, twisting, foot traffic, industrial contact or rodents. Where the path is protected indoor cabling, D03 is lighter, more flexible and more economical.

Q2. Which outer jacket — PVC, LSZH or TPU? PVC blue for cost-effective indoor use; LSZH black for enclosed / public indoor spaces; TPU black where abrasion, oil and low temperature are concerns.

Q3. How flexible is the armored cable? The spiral armor bends with normal routing but needs a larger bend radius than a standard cord — about 15 × cable OD static and 25 × OD dynamic. Plan the route and tray radius accordingly; it is rodent-resistant, not a guarantee against all damage.

Q4. MOQ, lead time and custom builds? MOQ 1 pc, about 5 days for standard builds. G.657.A2 / B3 fiber, multimode, custom length and labels, plus volume orders, are quoted on request; a pre-production sample can be arranged.

Ordering & Service

• Standard builds: MOQ 1 pc, about 5 days; custom builds and volume orders agreed on request; reply within 24 h.
• To quote, send: fiber · fiber count · overall length · jacket + color · breakout leg OD (2.0 mm) · equal-length + leg lengths · connector / polish · labels / packaging.
• Packaging: individual plastic bag or standard export carton; custom labels and port numbering on request; pulling eye / reel packaging on request.
• Can be supplied as one matched set with patch enclosures, cassettes and patch cords for a rack, floor or industrial build.

Focus note: We specialize in the 2–24 fiber spiral-armored breakout for crush- and rodent-risk indoor and industrial routing. The non-armored mini breakout sits under XHT-D03; direct-burial / long outdoor aerial and very high-count assemblies are quoted per project rather than catalogued.
