Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between UPC and APC connectors on this cable?
This cable uses APC (Angle Polished Connector) ends, which are polished at an 8-degree angle to significantly reduce back reflection compared to standard UPC connectors.
Is this cable TAA compliant?
No, this product is marked as non-TAA compliant for GSA purposes.
Can this be used for outdoor runs?
No, this is intended for indoor use, as indicated by the PVC jacket material.
What is the fiber type for this patch cable?
This is a single mode fiber optic cable, designed for long-range data transmission.
Does this include a test report?
While each cable is 100% optically tested, a printed test report is not included in the package contents.
