Cleerline SSF Fiber D50125MOM3R Fiber Optic Cable Installation Guide
GENERAL GUIDELINES
The following recommendations are general guidelines only. At minimum, most installations require two strands of fiber, although adding additional strands is recommended.
MULTIMODE OR SINGLE MODE FIBER?
Multimode fibers (OM3 or OM4) have a distance limitation of approximately 1,000 ft. Above this, single mode (OS2) should be considered. Devices may also specify fiber type.
0-1000 ft (300 m): ULTIMODE 0M3 /0M4
1000 ft (300 m) and above (typical): SIN L LE MODE 0S2
CONNECTOR TYPE
The equipment in use determines connectors. LC or SC connectors are most
common. Connectors must match fiber type, i.e. single mode connectors must be
used with single mode fiber.
Example part numbers are GENERAL GUIDELINES ONLY. Always verify installation requirements for jacket and cable rating before choosing a cable type.
