Ordered 60,000 meters of 48-fiber OS2 cable for a district cooling utility network in Dubai. Upon arrival, approximately 8 reels had drum length labels that did not match the OTDR trace data enclosed — a discrepancy of roughly 50–80 meters per reel. This created scheduling complications on-site. Raised the issue with the supplier and they responded within 24 hours, provided corrected documentation, and offered partial credit for the re-measurement labor cost. Cable itself tested correctly at ≤0.20 dB/km at 1550 nm per ITU-T G.652D — the fiber quality is not the concern. Issue has been resolved and we are considering a follow-up order, but quality control on labeling needs improvement.
