●  Save costs for procurement and installation of fiber optic cable and copper cable separately
●  Remote power supply for outdoor equipment
●  Variety of method of transmission, hybrid cable fiber, and power
●  Suitable for security systems, easy to manage and maintain, flexibility
 
Applications
Hybrid cable is widely used in power supply systems for remote telecommunication, short-distance communication systems with power supply, the distributed base station with DC remote supply system, security network of CCTV surveillance with duct or aerial installation, FTTH, FTTA, 5G, indoor/outdoor applications, etc.

 

Conclusion
Hybrid cable offers a solution suitable for every special application where a single cable with optical fiber and copper conductors is preferred. In addition, the hybrid cable provides long-term cost savings, more convenient installation and maintenance, space-saving construction with smaller outer diameters, and flexibility. Sun Telecom provides a variety of hybrid cable combinations to meet your specific needs.
