Stainless Steel Armored Tactical Fiber Cable with Reel

Single-Mode vs. Multi-Mode Fiber

• Single-Mode Fiber:
  – Best for long-distance transmission (up to 10km or more).
  – Ideal for applications like telecommunications, data centers, and outdoor installations.
  – Smaller core diameter reduces signal loss over long distances.
• Multi-Mode Fiber:
  – Perfect for short to medium distances (up to 300m).
  – Commonly used in LANs, conference rooms, and indoor applications.
  – Larger core diameter supports high bandwidth for shorter distances.

Connector Type

• LC Connectors:
  – Compact and efficient, widely used in modern applications.
  – Ensure compatibility with your equipment before purchasing.

Cable Length

• Consider the distance of your installation and choose a cable that exceeds the required length to allow flexibility during setup.
• Common lengths: 100M, 200M, 300M (available with reel and protection cap for safe transport and storage).

Core Count

• 4/6 Cores: Ideal for smaller setups requiring fewer connections, like simple AV installations or local communication networks.
• 8/12 Cores: Suitable for medium-sized projects, such as broadcast events or stage lighting setups.
• 24 Cores: Designed for large-scale systems with multiple connections, like data centers or complex communication networks.

Cable Construction

• Highly durable, resistant to abrasion and mechanical damage.
• Suitable for rugged environments, rental events, or outdoor use.

Application-Specific Needs

• Rental Events or Outdoor Installations: Opt for armored tactical fiber cables with reels for easy handling and maximum protection.
• Data Centers: Single-mode, high-core-count cables are best for long-distance, high-speed data transfer.
• Industrial Use: Durability is key, so armored cables with protection caps are recommended.

Future-Proofing

Invest in cables with higher core counts or longer lengths to accommodate potential future expansion of your network or setup.
