HYBRIFLEX™ Standard, Cabling Solution for 3 RRU

Rev : A | Rev date : 07 Aug 2019
RFS' HYBRIFLEX™ cabling solution for Remote Radio Unit (RRU) combines optical fiber and DC power in a single lightweight aluminum corrugated cable, making it the world's most innovative solution for RRU deployments. It was developed to reduce installation complexity and cost at Cellular sites.
HYBRIFLEX™ cabling solutions allows mobile operators deploying RRU architecture to standardized installation process and eliminates the need and the cost for an internal grounding wire.
The HYBRIFLEX™ cable is part of a site installation kit. It consists of an armored bundle of 3 unshielded DC cables, 6 F/O distribution cables and a rip cord to adjust the breakout part of the cable.

FEATURES / BENEFITS

  • A corrugated armor with excellent bending characteristics minimizes installation time and enables mechanical protection and EMC shielding
  • Outer conductor grounding eliminates typical additional grounding requirement and saves on installation costs
  • Lightweight solution and compact design decreases tower loads
  • Robust cabling eliminates need for expensive cable trays and conduits
  • Installation of stripped fiber optic cable pairs directly to RRH reduces CAPEX and wind load by eliminating need for junction boxes
  • F/O and DC housed in single corrugated cable saves CAPEX by standardizing RRH cable installation and reducing installation equipments
