Black-Finish Optical Drop Cable Clamp ODWAC-12E
ODWAC-12E secures telephone drop wires and optical drop cables in telecommunications access installations.
Features
- Electrophoretic coating over stainless steel for durability
- Black finish distinguishes the clamp from other drop-wire fittings
- Shim has 26 holes in two rows to increase cable friction
- Quick hand fitting
- Economical construction
Application
This clamp anchors flat optical drop cables on pole-to-building and building-to-building routes. It accommodates cables below 5 mm high and 8 mm wide, with a 1.2 kN minimum breaking load and 30–50 m span range. Its mechanical retention supports stable tension in outdoor FTTH networks operated by carriers, ISPs and installation contractors.

General test method
Ultimate tensile testing determines how much mechanical tension a component can withstand. Opposing pulling forces are increased until the specimen deforms or fails. Recorded properties can include elongation, yield point and ultimate tensile strength.
This method applies to cable suspension and tension fittings, preformed grips, ADSS dead ends, stainless steel banding and FTTH drop clamps. Endurance programmes may combine tensile loading, temperature changes and oscillating stresses under conditions selected with reference to IEC 61284. Such evaluation supports product qualification and production quality control. This is a description of a test method, not evidence of completed testing for an individual JKTE model.
