The Hermesys ChimeraX™ 5G Hybrid High Speed Cable is an aluminum-armoured hybrid cable combining 18 copper power conductors with 36 optical fibers in a single sheath. Its heavy-duty construction is designed for fiber-to-the-antenna (FTTA) and 5G equipment deployments that need both high-capacity power delivery and fiber connectivity in one run to the antenna site.
Key Features and Benefits
- Combines 18×10mm² copper conductors with 36 G657A2 optical fibers in one cable, reducing the number of separate power and fiber runs needed to reach 5G antenna sites
- Fibers are organized into 3 identifiable subunits (printed A, B, C) of 12 fibers each, simplifying fiber management and termination at the antenna
- Aramid yarn strength members around each fiber subunit protect the fibers without introducing conductive metal near the optical core
- Corrugated aluminum tube armour gives strong mechanical and crush protection for tower and rooftop routing
- LLDPE outer jacket with UV-resistant carbon black content withstands prolonged outdoor sun exposure at elevated antenna and tower locations
- Color-coded conductor insulation (sequential blue/red ring marking) simplifies conductor identification during installation and maintenance
- Tight minimum bending radius of just 340mm supports routing through confined tower and cabinet spaces
- Wide operating range from -20°C to +70°C supports deployment across varied climates and tower environments
Typical Applications
- FTTA (Fiber to the Antenna) Deployments
- 5G Equipment Installations
