What types of fiber are available for indoor/outdoor assemblies?
Indoor/outdoor assemblies are available in both singlemode and multimode fiber, including OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, and OM5, allowing you to match your network performance requirements.
What’s the difference between indoor and indoor/outdoor assemblies?
Indoor assemblies are rated for plenum or riser spaces and optimized for controlled environments. Indoor/outdoor assemblies use UV-resistant and water-blocking materials, allowing them to transition between outdoor pathways and indoor spaces without needing a splice point.
When should I choose indoor/outdoor over armored outdoor assemblies?
Choose indoor/outdoor when you need a continuous run from an outdoor pathway into indoor plenum or riser spaces. Armored outdoor assemblies are better when additional protection against physical impact or rodent damage is required.
