kit) for termination? correct answers loose tube (loose buffer) cable

When pulling cables, the minimum bend radius under tension is generally specified as ______.
correct answers 20 times the cable diameter

Cable ties used on fiber optic cables ____. correct answers Can harm cables if too tight, so they
should be hand-tightened.

Fiber optic joints (connectors or splices) should have ____. correct answers low loss, minimal
reflectance and high mechanical strength

To reduce _____ as well as loss, the end of a connector ferrule is polished to a PC (physical
contact) finish. correct answers Reflectance
