General Fiber-Optic Sample Clauses

General Fiber-Optic. Cable Specifications - All fiber-optic cables and individual fibers shall meet or exceed the following specifications. Fiber optic cables shall have an all-dielectric aramid strength member, a tensile load rating of 259 kg (550 lb), and bend radius of 9 cm. All fibers in the cable shall be FDDL-compatible, multi-mode or single-mode depending on distance, graded-index, 62.51125- micron diameter, with 850 and 1300 nm light-source windows, 0.275 numerical aperture, 160/500 MHz-km dual-window bandwidth, 3.75/1.50 dB/km maximum attenuation over the -40C to 70C temperature range and shall have color-coded, fire-retardant, oil-resistant thermoplastic jacketing. Important note on distances and fiber: for distances over 715 feet, single mode 9/125 micron diameter (core/cladding) diameter, 1310 nm, low metal content, single mode fiber optic cables, complying with the ITU-T G.652and ISO/IEC 793-2 Type B1standards using LC gigabit connectivity maybe necessary. Using Multi mode cable and SC connectors will only allow distances of 1700 feet with specially purchased mode conditioning patch cables.
