Frequently Asked Questions
Are these boots compatible with 3mm cables?
No, these boots are specifically designed for 2mm jacketed cables. Using them on larger cables may result in an improper fit.
Do these fit all connector types?
These are designed for use with FC style connectors. Compatibility with other connector types is not supported.
What is the primary function of these boots?
They provide strain relief at the back of the connector to protect the fiber from excessive bending and mechanical pull-force.
Is the color aqua used for a specific fiber type?
In many industry applications, aqua is used to designate OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber, though specific labeling practices can vary.
How many boots are in one order?
Each package contains 25 individual strain relief boots.
