Singlemode fiber optic patch cables come with a 9 micron diameter glass core. With the cladding layer, they are 125 micron, and with the buffer layer they are 250 micron. To prevent excessive loss (attenuation), you should ensure that you only connect single mode cables to other single mode fibers already in your system.

Please see our guide at Fiber Optic Cables & SFP Compatibility for more information.

Tensile Strength

Always take care when installing fiber cables to ensure not to break the fiber inside the cable by over-bending or twisting cables. These cables strengthened by the 2*0.45mm steel wires provide more than enough pulling strength to easily install these cables in difficult environments without breaking the cable.
