| Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) | 10 km (≈ 5 reels × 2 km) | Smaller trial orders negotiable for qualified distributors; OEM/ODM labeling available above 50 km |
| Monthly Supply Capacity | 500,000 km/month | Supported by automated drawing towers and multi-shift production; lead time 7–15 business days |
Ordered 96-fiber OM4 multimode cable for an industrial tray installation at a logistics warehouse in Birmingham. On delivery of 10,000 meters, our team identified a 180-meter shortfall against the purchase order. This caused a brief scheduling delay. After raising the issue with the supplier, replacement reels were dispatched within 72 hours and arrived in four days — problem resolved before it impacted our commissioning deadline. Cable performance itself was good: bandwidth confirmed at ≥4700 MHz·km, IEC 60794-1-2 crush resistance validated, and LSZH jacket met our fire safety requirements. The quick resolution was reassuring, but tighter dispatch QC would have avoided the issue entirely.
