DIGITUS Fttx installation kit pre-assembled 4-fiber LC/APC connectors 70m 9 µm

The DIGITUS Fttx installation kit is a compact FTTH solution supplied with a pre-assembled 70 m installation cable containing four 9 µm optical fibers and LC/APC connector terminations on one side. Designed for quick deployment of high-speed fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) connections at network level 4, the kit includes a wall- and DIN-rail-mountable junction box with integrated splice cassette and two LC-APC duplex couplers to simplify connection to home gateways or distribution panels.

Advantages

This ready-to-install kit reduces installation time inside the residential unit by providing pre-terminated LC/APC connectors and an open cable end for easy routing to the building handover point. The junction box supports surface mounting, offers integrated laser-protection shutters on the LC/APC couplers, and includes a sturdy pulling eye for safe cable installation in conduit systems. All necessary components for completing an indoor FTTH drop are included, enabling straightforward splicing and expansion.

Suitable for

• Indoor FTTH/Fttx installations in apartments and single-family homes
• Connection from building handover point to home gateway or ONT
• Professional or fast-install residential fiber deployments
• Situations requiring compact surface or DIN-rail mounted fiber junctions

When it may not be suitable

This kit is intended for indoor and short outdoor drop installations and is not designed as a long-distance backbone cable. It contains pre-assembled drop cable with LC/APC terminations on one end only; if you need different connector types, additional adapters or field-terminated connectors will be required. The 2.0 mm cable and white LSOH sheath are optimized for typical residential routes but may not meet specific mechanical protection requirements for exposed external runs without additional conduit or protection.

Key specifications

• Drop cable length: 70 m
• Fiber count and type: 4 × 9/125 µm G.657.A2 bend-optimized fibers
• Cable diameter: 2.0 mm
• Buffer: 900 µm removable buffer
• Strength members: aramid yarn for strain relief
• Outer sheath: LSOH, color white
• Cable structure class: I-V(ZN)H
• Reaction to fire (CPR): Dca
• Connector type: LC/APC (pre-assembled on one end), APC polish
• Number of panel ports: 4 (2 equipped ports with 2× LC-APC duplex couplers)
• Junction box dimensions (H×W×D): 80 × 80 × 28 mm
• Junction box material: ABS
• Operating temperature (cable): -15 °C to +70 °C
• Installation temperature range: -10 °C to +60 °C
• Storage/working temperature (box): -40 °C to +65 °C
• Weight (kit): approx. 60 g
• Full duplex support

How to use

Mount the FTTH junction box at the chosen indoor location on a wall or DIN rail. Route the pre-assembled drop cable through the conduit or guided path to the building handover point and use the pulling eye to assist installation if needed. Terminated LC/APC connectors are ready to plug into an ONT, router or adapter; the open cable end can be prepared and spliced inside the integrated splice cassette to connect to the building-side fiber. Ensure the laser-protection shutters remain closed until connectors are mated and follow standard fiber handling and cleaning procedures during installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm LC/APC connector compatibility with your ONT or distribution panel
• Verify that 70 m cable length and 2.0 mm diameter suit the intended routing
• Plan for additional protective conduit if the drop will be exposed outdoors
• Ensure installers have splicing tools if integration with building fibers is required

Recommendations

Use appropriate fiber cleaning tools and keep the LC/APC laser-protection shutters closed until final mating. When pulling the cable, avoid exceeding bend radius limits for G.657.A2 fibers and secure the junction box with recommended fasteners for stable, long-term installation.
