Frequently Asked Questions
What is a plenum-rated trunk cable used for?
A plenum trunk cable is designed for installation in air-handling spaces above drop ceilings or in ventilation plenums. The plenum jacket meets fire safety codes (typically UL 910 or equivalent) and prevents toxic smoke release if exposed to flame, making it essential for commercial buildings and data centers.
Why choose 48-fiber trunk cables for data centers?
48-fiber trunk cables maximize backbone capacity while minimizing physical footprint. They're ideal for high-density environments where space is limited but bandwidth demands are high, supporting multiple server connections and inter-switch links through a single pre-terminated assembly.
What's the advantage of ST connectors on fiber cables?
ST connectors provide reliable, keyed connections that prevent accidental mismating and ensure consistent performance. They're widely deployed in enterprise networks and offer excellent repeatability for mission-critical applications requiring frequent connections and disconnections.
How does single-mode fiber differ from multimode in trunk applications?
Single-mode fiber supports longer distances (up to 10+ km) with lower attenuation, making it ideal for campus backbones and inter-building links. Multimode is better for shorter runs within buildings. For 68-foot trunk cables, single-mode ensures future-proof performance and compatibility with long-distance network designs.
