OVERVIEW
Fiber Optic Cables use light as a digital information carrier.
The cable is made up of small strands of glass, each providing
a path for light rays carrying the data signal. Fiber Optic
Cables offer large bandwidth, very high security, and immun-
ity to electrical interference.
Fiber Optic Cables are offered in different lengths, and you
can choose either riser or plenum cable. Riser cable is good for
running cables in walls. Plenum cabling is approved by the
NEC®for installation in air spaces or ceilings because it does
not emit toxic fumes when it burns.
You can run Fiber Optic Cable to the desktop for a planned
deployment of high-data-rate systems such as FDDI, multi-
media, or ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode), or applications
that require large file transfers.
It can also address environmental problems such as EMI
(electromagnetic interference) or high security requirements.
Ceramic connectors on the Ceramic-Terminated Cables
make the highest quality cables and provide low signal loss,
high reliability, and long life. Composite connectors are good
quality and are constructed of a durable polymer and also
offer high precision and low light loss.
All of these cables are ideal for use as work-area, cross-
connect, or equipment jumper cables.

Recognize any of these situations?
• You wait more than 30 minutes to get through
to a vendor’s tech support.
• The so-called “tech” can’t help you or gives you
the wrong answer.
• You don’t have a purchase order number and the
tech refuses to help you.
• It’s 9 p. m. and you need help, but your vendor’s
tech support line is closed.
According to a survey by Data Communications
magazine, 90% of network managers surveyed say
that getting the technical support they need is extremely
important when choosing a vendor. But even though
network managers pay anywhere from 10 to 20% of their
overall purchase price for a basic service and support
contract, the technical support and service they receive falls
far short of their expectations—and certainly isn’t worth
what they paid.
At Black Box, we guarantee the best value and the
best support. You can even consult our Technical Support
Experts before you buy if you need help selecting just
the right component for your application.
Don’t waste time and money—call Black Box today.
