FAQ

What is mode conditioning, and why is it needed?

Mode conditioning is used to offset the mode mismatch between two different connector types, such as LC and ST. This ensures that the light signal traveling through the fiber remains optimal, preventing signal loss and degradation in high-speed applications.

Can I get a longer length than 5000 feet?

This product line is pre-cut to your exact length, from 10 feet to 5000 feet. For lengths longer than 5000 feet, please consult with our team for alternative options.

Is the cable fully customizable?

These cables are not customizable in terms of strand count or connector type. However, they are available in stock and can ship quickly. For custom requirements, we recommend checking our other customizable fiber optic assemblies.

What is the difference between OM1 and OM2 fiber types?

OM1 (62.5/125) fiber is suitable for standard applications and shorter distances, while OM2 (50/125) fiber offers improved bandwidth and is designed for longer distance applications. OM2 is the better option for higher-speed networks.

What is the pulling eye for?

A pulling eye is an optional feature that makes it easier to pull the cable through tight spaces or conduit. It helps with smooth and safe installation, particularly in long runs or in spaces with limited accessibility.
