| Tensile Strength | ≥2700 N (armored); ≥1000 N (non-armored) | Per IEC 60794-1-2 Method E1; aramid yarn or steel wire strength members |
| Crush Resistance | ≥3000 N/100mm | Per IEC 60794-1-2 Method E3; armored design for direct burial and duct installation |
| Cable Diameter (OD) | 5.0 mm – 14.0 mm | Varies by fiber count (1–144 fibers) and armor type; custom OD available on request |
| Assembly Length | 1 m – 500 m (custom) | Pre-cut and terminated to specified length; ±0.5% length tolerance |
| Surface Finish | UV-resistant PE / LSZH outer jacket | Black PE standard for outdoor UV protection; LSZH option for low-smoke requirements |
| Application | FTTH, campus networks, data centers, aerial/direct burial links | Outdoor distribution, feeder cables, last-mile connectivity, and inter-building runs |
| Certification | RoHS, CE, UL, ISO 9001 | Factory 100% tested with test report included; OTDR trace available upon request |
| Packaging | Wooden drum / cardboard reel / pull-out box | Protective end caps on connectors; moisture-barrier packaging for long-term storage |
| MOQ | 1 piece / custom project quantity | Small-batch and project-based orders accepted; bulk pricing available for ≥100 pcs |
First order of 40 pcs G.657A2 LC/UPC outdoor assemblies, 25m each, for an industrial campus project. Upon inspection, 6 units had damaged dust caps and two connector end-faces showed contamination visible under 400× inspection — likely a packaging issue in transit. Reported to the factory with photos; they shipped replacement units within 3 business days at no charge and upgraded packaging for the batch. Replacement units all passed our IEC 61754 insertion loss verification. The resolution was professional and fast. Underlying product quality on the undamaged units was good — return loss averaged 52 dB. Will give the supplier another chance on our next procurement.
