FAQ
What type of fiber does this cable use?
This cable uses single-mode fiber with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification, compliant with OS2 standards. Single-mode fiber is designed for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss, making it ideal for backbone connections and inter-building links in network installations.
What connectors are on each end of the cable?
One end features two LC male connectors, while the opposite end has two SC male connectors. This LC to SC configuration provides compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment, including switches, routers, and media converters that use these common fiber optic connector types.
What does 'plenum-rated' mean for this cable?
The plenum-rated PVC jacket meets fire safety standards for installation in air-handling spaces, such as above drop ceilings or below raised floors. This rating indicates the jacket material produces low smoke and minimal toxic fumes if exposed to fire, making it suitable for commercial building installations where fire codes require plenum-rated cabling.
What is the warranty for this fiber optic cable?
This cable comes with a lifetime warranty from C2G, providing long-term assurance of product quality and reliability. The warranty covers manufacturing defects and ensures the cable meets specified performance standards throughout its service life in network installations.
What applications is this cable best suited for?
This cable is ideal for data center connections, enterprise network backbones, telecommunications installations, and any application requiring reliable high-speed fiber optic connections. The single-mode fiber and OS2 specification support long-distance transmission, while the durable construction handles both permanent installations and temporary patching needs.
Is this cable environmentally compliant?
Yes, this cable is manufactured with RoHS-compliant materials, restricting hazardous substances like lead, mercury, and cadmium. The construction is environmentally friendly, and the PVC jacket is designed for durability while meeting regulatory requirements for electronic products.
