Frequently Asked Questions
What does the APC designation mean?
APC stands for Angle-Polished Connector. The fiber end-face is polished at an 8-degree angle to significantly reduce back reflection (return loss) compared to standard flat-polished (UPC) connectors.
Is this cable suitable for high-speed networks?
Yes, this single mode patch cable is designed for high-performance applications where low signal loss and low reflectance are critical for bandwidth integrity.
Can I use this for both indoor and outdoor applications?
This cable is generally designed for indoor use in controlled environments like server rooms and data centers. Consult with local codes for specific building installation requirements.
What is a simplex cable?
A simplex cable contains a single strand of fiber, typically used for unidirectional data transmission.
Does this cable include test documentation?
Every unit is 100% optically tested for insertion loss and back reflection at the factory to meet performance specifications.
