FAQ

What makes Micro Armor Fiber different from traditional armored fiber?

Micro Armor Fiber utilizes stainless steel coil technology, which makes it smaller and lighter compared to traditional aluminum interlocking armor, while still offering the same level of crush resistance and rodent protection.

Is this cable suitable for outdoor installations?

No, this Ultra Thin Micro Armor cable is specifically designed for indoor use. For outdoor installations, please consider our outdoor-rated cables, which are built to withstand environmental conditions such as UV exposure, extreme temperatures, and moisture.

Can I use this cable for high-speed internet or data center applications?

Yes, this singlemode fiber is designed to support high-speed applications, including 10G, 40G, and 100G data rates, making it perfect for data center connections and high-performance networks.

What is the difference between the 250 µm Loose Tube and 900 µm Tight Buffer versions?

The 250 µm Loose Tube version is more suitable for environments where flexibility and space-saving are prioritized, while the 900 µm Tight Buffer version is designed for applications requiring more protection and strength for individual fibers in rugged conditions.

How do I determine the right strand count for my project?

The strand count you need will depend on your specific application, the number of connections required, and the distance the cable needs to cover. For smaller installations, a 2 or 4 strand cable may be sufficient, while larger setups may require 12 strands or more.
