Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between UPC and APC connectors?
APC (Angle Polished Connector) uses an 8-degree angle polish to minimize back reflection, whereas UPC uses a flat polish.
Can I use this cable for high-speed internet?
Yes, this single mode duplex cable is suitable for high-bandwidth telecommunications and data center applications.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This cable features a standard PVC jacket intended for indoor controlled environments; it is not rated for external or direct-burial use.
What does 'Duplex' mean?
A duplex cable contains two fibers, allowing for two-way communication (one for transmitting, one for receiving).
Are these cables tested before shipping?
Yes, every FiberXP cable is 100% optically tested for insertion loss and back reflection.
