FAQ
The FiberMania Outdoor 4-Core LC Uniboot to LC Uniboot Assembly is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern wireless site installations. With the shift to 5G and massive MIMO systems, network operators need high-density fiber solutions that maximize space and reduce complexity. This 4-core assembly combines four single-mode fibers into a compact 4.8mm round cable, providing double the capacity of standard duplex cables. The design allows a single cable pull to support multiple Remote Radio Units (RRUs) or Active Antenna Units (AAUs), simplifying installations on cellular towers and other high-demand environments.
The cable uses LC Uniboot connectors at both ends, which consolidate two fibers per boot for easier management. Its field-reversible polarity mechanism allows technicians to quickly switch transmission (Tx) and reception (Rx) positions without exposing fibers to the elements, ensuring maximum flexibility. The use of bend-insensitive G.657.A fiber guarantees low signal attenuation, even when routed through tight spaces and sharp corners. Available with either LSZH or TPU jacket options, this assembly is built for durability, offering resistance to UV radiation, moisture, and extreme temperatures, making it ideal for long-term outdoor use in harsh environments.

What are the advantages of using a 4-core cable instead of two 2-core cables?
The 4-core Uniboot assembly reduces the number of cable runs required, saving installation time, reducing wind load on towers, and simplifying inventory management. It is an efficient way to support multiple radios with a single cable pull. -
Is the polarity reversible on both ends of the 4-core cable?
Yes, each LC Uniboot connector features a tool-less polarity reversal mechanism, giving you full flexibility to adjust the Tx/Rx configuration on-site. -
Can FiberMania provide this cable with armored protection?
Yes, we can add a stainless steel armored layer to the cable for projects that require additional protection against rodents or crush resistance, ideal for direct-burial applications. -
What is the difference between TPU and LSZH jacket materials?
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is more flexible and abrasion-resistant, making it ideal for frequent handling or tactical deployments. LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) is preferred for installations where fire safety is critical, as it produces less smoke and no toxic fumes in the event of a fire. -
How does this cable perform in extreme temperatures?
This assembly is designed to perform reliably in a wide temperature range from -20°C to +70°C, ensuring stable operation in both harsh cold and extreme heat conditions.
