We ordered 36-fiber and 72-fiber G.652D reels for a mixed rural/suburban deployment in Ohio. On arrival, two reels were labeled with incorrect fiber counts — 36F labels on 72F reels. This caused a scheduling delay on site. After contacting the sales engineer, corrected documentation and replacement labels arrived digitally within 6 hours and physically within 3 days. The actual cable performance was not affected: attenuation measured 0.19 dB/km at 1550 nm and tensile strength verified at 2,650 N. Issue was administrative, not a product defect. Happy to order again with this clarified.
