The GT 310 Mobile Cable Drum is a compact, professional-grade solution for managing and deploying fiber optic and other low-diameter cables in demanding environments. Designed around a robust plastic frame with an outer height of 367 mm, width of 310 mm, and depth of 229 mm, this drum offers an optimal balance between portability and stability. With an empty weight of approximately 1.8 kg and a total weight of around 6.1 kg when loaded with 130 m of 6 mm cable, it is easy to transport and handle in the field while still providing generous cable capacity.

Engineered for harsh outdoor and industrial applications, the GT 310 matches and often exceeds the resilience typically expected from professional cable drums used in broadcasting, event production, mobile networks, field measurement, and military or civil protection deployments. Its plastic construction is designed to withstand rough handling, repeated transportation, and variable environmental conditions common in mobile and temporary installations. This makes it well-suited for scenarios where reliable, tangle-free cable deployment and retrieval are critical to maintaining signal integrity and minimizing downtime.

The cable drum supports impressive maximum lengths depending on cable diameter: up to 190 m for 5 mm cables, 130 m for 6 mm cables, and 90 m for 7 mm cables. This capacity range is ideal for medium to long runs in field setups, such as outdoor fiber links between temporary control rooms and camera positions, mobile data links between network nodes, or temporary fiber connections in test and measurement environments. Compared with many similarly sized drums on the market, the GT 310 offers a strong combination of compact dimensions, low weight, and high cable volume, enabling efficient use of space in vehicles, racks, and storage areas.

The GT 310 Mobile Cable Drum is optimized for modern fiber optic connectivity. It can be equipped with rugged expanded beam connectors such as Eurolens (HMA) from Amphenol Precision Optics, as well as industry-standard interfaces including Han® 3A, MTP®, FO2/FO4 circular connectors, and common fiber optic connector types like LC, SC, and E‑2000® (LSH). In combination with available A‑V(ZN)11Y(ZN)11Y fiber optic cable with a 6.0 mm outer diameter and 2 or 4 fibers, the drum becomes a complete, field-ready assembly that simplifies deployment of high-performance optical links. This compatibility with a broad range of connector standards makes it easy to integrate the drum into existing infrastructures found in broadcast, telecom, industrial automation, and defense applications.

For users who require integrated connectivity management, the GT 310 can be configured with an internal patch panel. Options include configurations for up to six SC simplex or six LC duplex adapters, allowing quick and organized patching between incoming and outgoing lines on the drum. This internal patch capability is particularly beneficial in field distribution points, mobile command centers, and temporary equipment setups where clean signal routing and simple reconfiguration are essential. Compared to typical basic cable reels, this integrated approach reduces the need for external distribution hardware, cuts setup time, and helps maintain a tidy, documented cabling layout.

Beyond the core drum, a range of options enhances usability and protection. The design can be ordered as a stackable SK 310 version, allowing multiple drums to be securely stored and transported in vertical stacks, a common requirement in rental, touring, and mobile service fleets. A protection and cable-laying tube supports guided cable routing and added mechanical protection along sensitive segments. An auxiliary coil and cord wrap support precise, even cable winding, which helps maintain minimum bending radii, prolong cable life, and ensure reliable signal performance over repeated deployments and retrievals. When paired with harsh-environment connectors and matching junction boxes, the GT 310 can form a complete cabling solution that is ready for rapid deployment in the field.

In practical use, this mobile cable drum is aimed at professionals who need reliable, repeatable, and serviceable fiber and low-diameter cable handling. Its capacity, rugged design, and adaptable connectivity options position it as a strong choice for broadcast crews, systems integrators, telecom technicians, industrial operators, and emergency communication teams. Whether used as a standalone reel or as part of a larger mobile fiber infrastructure, the GT 310 Mobile Cable Drum delivers organized cable management and long-term durability while maintaining the compact format required for frequent transport and field operation.
