FAQ – Quick Answers for Professionals
Q: Why choose LC/APC over UPC connectors?
A: APC’s angled polish reduces back reflection by 15dB+, essential for PON and CATV systems.
Q: Is this cable bend-insensitive?
A: Yes, it meets ITU-T G.657.A2 standards for tight bending (7.5mm radius).
Q: Can I customize lengths?
A: Absolutely! We offer 0.5m to 50m options with fast lead times.
Q: OS1 vs. OS2 – which is better?
A: OS2 has stricter attenuation specs (0.4dB/km vs 1.0dB/km), ideal for long-haul networks.
Q: Compatible with MPO systems?
A: Yes, available as MPO-to-4xLC/APC breakout cables for high-density patching.
