+ What are the benefits of using pre-terminated FTTH drop cable assemblies?
Pre-terminated drop cable assemblies significantly reduce installation time and the need for specialized splicing equipment at the customer premises. These assemblies are factory-polished and tested to ensure low insertion loss, making them a reliable ‘plug-and-play’ solution for both indoor and outdoor last-mile connectivity.
+ What is the difference between an MPO Trunk and an MPO Fanout?
MPO Trunks are high-density backbone cables with MPO connectors on both ends, designed for permanent links between racks or panels. MPO Fanouts feature an MPO connector on one end that ‘fans out’ into individual connectors (such as 8 or 12 LCs) on the other, allowing high-density trunk cables to connect directly to standard switch ports or equipment.
+ When should I choose a pre-terminated multi-fibre cable assembly over field splicing?
Pre-terminated assemblies are ideal for projects with tight timelines or limited on-site cleanroom environments. Because they are terminated and tested in a controlled factory setting, they eliminate the risk of field termination errors and provide guaranteed performance metrics for high-core count links.
+ What configurations are available for optical patch cords and leads?
Our patch cords are available in duplex, simplex, and single-cord configurations to suit various network requirements. They can be customized with various connector types including LC, SC, SN, and ST, in both UPC and APC polishing to ensure compatibility with your existing active equipment and patch panels. Our patch cords have a variety of cord options including duplex figure-8, single cord 2mm and single cord 1.6mm
+ How do you ensure the quality of high-density MPO cable assemblies?
All high-density MPO assemblies undergo rigorous interferometry and insertion loss testing. This ensures that every MPO connector meets strict 3D geometry standards and polarity requirements, which is critical for supporting 40G, 100G, and 400G network architectures.
+ Are your indoor/outdoor FTTH drop cables rugged enough for harsh environments?
Yes. Our ToughPORT™ FTTH drop cables are designed with robust jacketing materials that provide UV protection for outdoor exposure. Our indoor FTTH premise cables feature flame-retardant properties for indoor safety compliance. They also feature both 3mm and 4.8mm diamter designs to provide additional protection during installation.
+ What are optical fibre pigtails used for in a network?
Optical fibre pigtails consist of a short length of fibre with a factory-installed connector on one end and unterminated (or blunt) fibre on the other. They are used to terminate cables via fusion splicing inside a splice enclosure or patch panel, providing a reliable and low-loss connection point for the incoming network fibres.
+ Can I order custom lengths for pre-terminated multi-fibre assemblies?
We provide pre-terminated cable assemblies in a variety of lengths tailored to your specific site requirements. This minimizes excess cable slack in cabinets and ensures a cleaner installation, which is especially important in high-density data centres where airflow and cable management are priorities.
