ResiLink™ All-Dielectric Flat Drop Cable (1-24 Fibers)
Prysmian’s ResiLink™ ADF Flat Drop is designed for outdoor use and features 1 to 24 bend-insensitive single-mode fibers. This compact, rugged cable features two dielectric-strength elements on either side, providing durability and flexibility for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) installations. Its outer sheath is made from tough HDPE, and the 3mm subunit is gel-filled to prevent water ingress and ensure protective insulation.
ResiLink ADF is engineered as an aerial, self-supporting cable, capable of spanning lengths of up to 450 feet in NESC Light regions. Additionally, it can be buried directly, aerial-lashed, or installed in a duct. This versatile design requires no bonding or grounding, is flexible, and is resistant to kinks and crush damage. It is also designed for easy access, facilitating quick preparation for splice tray installation.

Features and Benefits
Easy Access Design
- The jacket can be easily opened with a knife
- The buffer tube is easily separated from the jacket and strength members
- The 3.0 mm buffer tube provides protection when routing fibers to the splice tray
All-Dielectric Messengers
- No bonding or grounding required
- Flexible and kink resistant
Dry Water-Blocking Technology
- Permits rapid cable preparation and termination
- Water-blocking materials are easily removed
Versatile Design
- Small cross-section and high strength provide good aerial performance
- Can be pushed or pulled through the duct
Highly Crush-Resistant
- Dual Strength Member Design
- More flexible than a single, all-dielectric rod of the same strength
- Easier to handle and coil than comparable all-dielectric figure-8 designs
- A great alternative where steel strength members are not permissible
High-Density Polyethylene Jacket
- Low-friction installation
- Excellent protection from environmental hazards
Sheath Markings: Provides positive identification and length verification
Performance
