Questions & Answers
What makes Indoor/Outdoor Ultra-Thin Armored MTP trunks different from standard armored cables?
These assemblies use Micro Armor Fiber™ with a stainless steel coil design, which makes them up to 65% smaller in diameter and 75% lighter than traditional interlocking armor while still providing crush and rodent resistance.
What strength elements are built into the cable?
A water-blocking aramid yarn strength member reinforces the assembly, providing additional durability against moisture and tension.
Where are these assemblies typically used?
They are ideal for data centers, enterprise backbones, telecommunications networks, and building-to-building connections that require both indoor and outdoor performance.
Why are genuine US Conec® MTP connectors important for performance?
US Conec® connectors are the industry standard for precision and reliability. Using genuine components ensures consistent performance, durability, and compatibility with existing infrastructure.
What is APC polish?
APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish refers to a connector end face that is polished at an 8° angle. This angled tip, combined with a specific end face radius, minimizes back reflection to about -60dB. APC connectors are typically green for easy identification.
