 Unique Configurations for Unique Applications
In addition to offering a full spectrum of high performance braided coax cable for CATV applications, CommScope offers unique configurations such as MultiReach, unshielded twisted pair coupled with coax in a single jacket, and other hybrids which can be custom engineered as needed.
Hybrid constructions offer the additional protection of an outside jacket compared to designs offered by many vendors that are merely a bundle of subunits wrapped together with a special tape or binder thread – frequently called “speed pull”. CommScope hybrid cables are constructed from subunits carefully selected and performance-verified individually and as the sum of individual parts.
Twisted copper pairs and coax are self-contained in MultiReach. This multi-leg cable is comprised of coax and twisted copper pairs to provide one physically-contained cable through which video, data, telephony and power can be locally distributed. This eliminates multiple installation runs, thereby reducing labor costs and easing installation planning.
Hybrids are also commonly called Figure-8, multileg or multiconductor. |

Hybrid Cables
Voice-over-IP (VoIP) technologies let residential and business customers make telephone calls using internet
or broadband infrastructure instead of traditional telephone networks. For most cable providers, VoIP means capturing residential phone revenues. CommScope offers a range of fiber optic cables applicable in VoIP networks.
