FAQ
What is the purpose of the gel-filled design in this fiber optic cable?
The gel-filled design is used to prevent water infiltration into the cable, which is crucial for outdoor installations where moisture may be present. The gel helps block water migration, protecting the fiber from potential damage in environments that may have flooding or water exposure.
Can I use this cable indoors?
This cable is specifically designed for outdoor (OSP) use. Fire code regulations restrict the use of gel-filled cables to a maximum of 50 feet indoors. For indoor installations, we recommend using a different type of fiber optic cable.
What are the length options for this cable?
This cable is sold by the foot, with lengths available from 10 feet up to 5000 feet. You can order the exact amount you need for your installation.
Does this cable come with connectors?
This product is sold as bulk fiber and does not come with connectors. However, we offer connectorization services if you need connectors added for your specific project. Please contact us for more details.
What is the lead time for this cable?
This product typically ships within 24 business hours for most orders, allowing for quick deployment of your outdoor fiber optic installations.
