They can

In reply to a post by dect:

Does anyone know if the connectorised cables that transition from outside (black) to inside (white) can also be used with a CSP?

Does Openreach still stock this type of cable or have they moved completely to the flat cable?

Why the interest in dropwires dect? It’s a rather, err…. dry topic? 😎😀

Sorry not all questions can be jazzed up, just trying to help someone out.

Rather than leaving this question hanging the answer is yes, they do stock other connectorised cables that are not the flat type.

Back with another question

Are the inside out fibre cables used today by Openreach the same as BT item code 061820

Thanks for all the replies guys

Seems like these are still used for new builds but maybe not for existing properties.

That Commscope EH3241 fibre drop cable (now discontinued) is awful to work with. Must be a technique that demands practise. An awkwardly-routed drop cable needed re-routing and re-splicing. Using side-snips, the middle of the cable was chopped lengthways. But when pulling the two strengtheners apart to expose the fibre itself, the strengtheners kept snapping! Very brittle. Job done in the end, but it was a nuisance with the fear of damaging the fibre. By comparison, the Dexgreen inside/outside lead-in cable is a joy to handle.

Thought I would revive this thread for one last question especially for Pheasant

When a CBT is at the top of a pole and the target property is accessed via a duct at the bottom of that pole does the connectorised cable (assume round not flat cable) get cleated to the pole with standard 5mm cleats and if so how far apart typically? also when using 19mm capping for the first 2.4m from the duct mouth would the connectorised cable still get cleated within the capping?

Sorry @dect - don't know.
