FAQ

What makes OM1 fiber different from OM3 or OM4?

OM1 uses a 62.5/125 micron core, making it ideal for shorter distance multimode applications. While OM3 and OM4 support higher bandwidth and longer distances, OM1 remains cost-effective and sufficient for legacy systems or lower-speed networks.

Can this fiber be used outdoors?

Yes, several versions in this category are indoor/outdoor rated or OSP-rated, designed specifically for environmental exposure and outdoor conduit or aerial applications.

What is the benefit of interlocking armor or micro armor?

Interlocking armor adds rigid protection against crushing or impact, ideal for industrial or mechanical spaces. Micro armor, on the other hand, provides flexibility and slimness while still offering a layer of protection, making it easier to route in tight or confined pathways.

Is this cable suitable for plenum spaces?

Yes, several indoor-rated options in this category are plenum-rated and meet NFPA low-smoke standards, making them suitable for use in air-handling spaces and plenum ceilings.

Can I get the cable pre-terminated?

This cable is typically sold by the foot, but it can also be delivered with pulling eyes installed for easier handling during deployment. For pre-terminated options, a different category would be more appropriate.
