Frequently Asked Questions
What does the "duplex" designation mean?
Duplex means the cable contains two individual fiber strands, allowing for simultaneous send and receive signals in a single cable assembly.
Are these connectors compatible with APC equipment?
No, these are UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) connectors. They are not compatible with APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors due to the difference in ferrule polish angle.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
No, this cable features a standard PVC jacket intended for indoor controlled environments and is not rated for outdoor exposure.
Does this patch cable meet TAA compliance?
No, this specific part number is marked as non-TAA compliant.
What is the purpose of the 100% optical testing?
The testing confirms that every individual cable meets specified insertion loss and return loss standards before it leaves the factory, ensuring immediate network readiness upon receipt.
