Frequently Asked Questions
What does the plenum rating mean?
Plenum rating indicates that the cable jacket is constructed of materials that produce minimal smoke and low flame spread, allowing it to be safely installed in ceiling and floor air-handling spaces.
Can I terminate connectors directly onto this cable?
Yes, the 900um tight-buffered fiber construction allows for direct termination of connectors without requiring breakout kits.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
No, this is a plenum-rated distribution cable intended for indoor environments only.
What is the fiber type?
This cable uses OM3 50/125um multimode fiber, which is optimized for 10Gbps applications.
How are the fibers protected?
The fibers are protected by a 900um tight buffer, which provides structural integrity and ease of handling during the termination process.
