Providing The Most Reliable Corrosion Protection Available In Drop Cable

CommScope Brightwire XP brings together two of the most popular features in coaxial drop cable. Combining the superior dry anti-corrosion features of Brightwire® with the innovative XpressPrep™ technology, Brightwire XP provides double-barreled benefits to customer installations of drop cable by offering lower initial and long-term operational costs.

Since its introduction, CommScope's XpressPrep cable has seen rapid, wide-scale adoption by major cable MSOs. By reducing the number of steps required to prepare a tri-shield cable for connectorization, XpressPrep can significantly reduce the time normally required for cable end preparation and improves system reliability by increasing the chances of proper connectorization.

Brightwire XP and XpressPrep both meet and exceed all applicable SCTE specifications assuring customers a high performing product and full compatibility with industry standard tri-shield connectors.

CommScope makes the most widely-deployed drop cable in the world - F-6 and F-11 series 75 ohm drop cables. These products provide high quality signal transmission, faster and easier installation, and have a record of dependable service quality in virtually every geographic location worldwide.

Innovative BrightWire^® anti-corrosive treatment further protects the integrity of the broadband drop plant while lowering operating and installation costs.

Standard Shield - CommScope's basic cable construction of fully bonded foil with a layer of shielding braid offers world class performance within an economical design.

Tri-Shield - Based on CommScope’s standard cable construction of fully bonded foil alternated with a layer of shielding braid, Tri-Shield adds an additional surrounding layer of foil to improve transmission reliability by means of an additional interference barrier.

SuperShield (Quad Shield) – Taking the Tri-Shield construction one step further, this construction adds an additional layer of shielding braid to provide the greatest strength, durability and immunity from network interference.

CommScope offers a full range of cable sizes to meet every application.

Available F-Series Drop Cables:

Providing customers with a better path for bi-directional digital systems, CommScope offers longer life expectancy and superior electrical/mechanical performance in hardline cables designed to withstand all kinds of environmental elements. CommScope QR^® , P3^® and now MC^2® 75 ohm coaxial cables are fully bonded and engineered to withstand jacket damage and corrosion.

 Installers resoundingly favor CommScope's craft-friendly trunk cable citing its ease of installation. This easy-install comes from a standard Advanced Coring Technology^® (ACT) found only in CommScope T&D coax cable – QR & P3.  

QR – More Miles for Your Money

CommScope's patented QR was developed to meet the increasing demands of broadband networks. QR has the highest reliability and flexibility of any coaxial cable, low RF attenuation and an unprecedented 10 year warranty. For the ultimate protection of underground plant, CommScope offers three standard QR sizes (540, 715 and 860) preinstalled in ConQuest Conduit.

Here's why leading broadband service providers around the world standardize on QR as the broadband coaxial transmission cable of choice:

For less money, QR 75 ohm coax cables deliver better electrical and mechanical performance than more expensive traditional cables:
 

• QR coax cables benefit from an engineered connector system that creates a "Triple Grip" on the cable (center conductor, shield and jacket). This system provides the simplest, quickest and most consistent connector installation yielding extremely high reliability.
   
• Creatively deployed, QR can reduce the number of actives required in a system to save you even more money.
   

P3 – CommScope's legacy P3 has been successfully deployed for decades in broadband networks. P3 is renowned for ease of use and robust performance and has become the standard by which other cable types are measured.  P3 is available in a variety of jacket configurations for every possible application, and only CommScope distribution cables come with ACT, which makes preparation for connectors a breeze.

For the ultimate protection of underground plant, CommScope offers four standard P3 sizes (500, 625, 750 and 875) preinstalled in ConQuest Conduit.

MC² – CommScope now offers MC² disc-and-air dielectric coaxial distribution cable in addition to our traditional foam dielectric lines.  MC² offers the lowest available attenuation in the smallest diameter cable, thereby maximizing duct efficiency and/or minimizing HFC plant active requirements.  Fully bonded performance and a variety of jacket configurations make MC² a flexible alternative. Like all CommScope distribution products, MC² 500, 650 and 750 are available preinstalled in ConQuest Conduit.
