Pre-Terminated Fiber Cable – Submit Complete Specs for Production Drawing

BWNFiber manufactures project-length pre-terminated fiber cable only after the full specification is confirmed. Define the route, fiber, both ends, length, breakout, cable construction and pulling protection. An engineer reviews every submission and returns a configuration confirmation or clarification request before any cable is produced.

This page is for buyers ready to submit an accurate specification. For the complete explanation of what pre-terminated assemblies are, when they are preferred over field termination, and how to choose fiber and connectors, read the Pre-Terminated Fiber Cable Assemblies Buyer’s Guide.

Scope

What This Page Covers

Project-length assemblies with factory-installed connectors or prepared termination ends, intended for FTTx drops, building backbones, equipment links and restricted pathways. Every order requires the nine fields below to be completed before a production drawing is issued.

Mandatory for Production Drawing

Nine Fields Required Before Manufacturing

Missing any of these fields is the most common cause of delayed quotations and assemblies that arrive correct on paper but unusable on site. Complete every field or state “to be confirmed” with a clear reason.

1. Network Link & EndpointsState the exact application (FTTx drop, backbone, equipment link, etc.) and name the device, panel, enclosure or adapter at End A and End B.
2. Fiber Grade & CountSpecify the exact grade (example: G.657.A2, OM4) plus working fibers and any reserve fibers. “Single-mode” or “multimode” alone is not sufficient.
3. End-A and End-B InterfacesState each end separately: connector family, APC or UPC polish, gender or pinning if applicable, adapter interface, boot style and protective hardware.
4. Polarity & Fiber MapProvide simplex, duplex or multifiber channel mapping. For multi-connector breakouts, identify every fiber, label and destination.
5. Cable ConstructionDefine round, flat drop, distribution, breakout, armored or unarmored construction together with diameter, strength members and jacket type.
6. Overall & Breakout LengthsGive measured route length, service-loop allowance, End-A and End-B breakout dimensions and accepted tolerance. State drum or coil preference if required.
7. Pulling Method & HeadState conduit or microduct inside diameter, pulling direction, required head diameter, maximum tensile load, bend control and connector protection method.
8. Installation EnvironmentDefine indoor, outdoor, aerial, duct or enclosure use, plus temperature range, UV, moisture, crush, fire-rating and sealing requirements.
9. Optical Limits & DocumentsState insertion-loss and return-loss limits, wavelengths, test direction, labels and the drawing, datasheet, channel map or test record required for acceptance.

Three Ordering Failures That Still Reach Site

  • Route measured after connectors are chosen. A factory-terminated end cannot pass through an opening that was never measured. Confirm minimum inside diameter and bends first.
  • “SC to SC, 50 m” submitted as a complete order. Missing polish, gender, breakout lengths or fiber map produces assemblies that look correct on the packing list and fail on installation.
  • Extra length added “just in case.” Excess slack overcrowds boxes and forces tight bends; insufficient length cannot be extended after termination. Measure, add a defined service loop, and state the tolerance.
Published Models Only

What BWNFiber Has Published

The following are model-specific references. They are not category-wide guarantees. Any combination outside these published models requires individual confirmation against the final production drawing.

  • Pull Pre-Terminated Fiber – G.657.A1/A2 and OM1–OM4 options, simplex, listed cable diameters, IL ≤ 0.3 dB, SM/APC RL ≥ 60 dB, lengths 1–150 m.
  • SC/APC Pushable Fiber Cable – G.657.A2 / G.657.B3, LSZH 0.9 mm inner + 3.0 mm TPU outer, SC/APC pushable End A and SC/APC End B.
  • IP Mini SC Fiber Optic Patch Cable – IP67 interface stated for that specific hardened assembly only.

Where a project requires reference to IEC 61753-1 performance grades or ITU-T G.657 categories, state the required grade in the order documentation. Do not assume a category-wide level.

Before Production

What We Need to Issue a Drawing

  • Complete nine-field specification or equivalent BOM / route drawing
  • Clear statement of any “to be confirmed” items
  • Quantity and required delivery window
  • Acceptance criteria and document list

Incomplete submissions receive a clarification request, not a production drawing.

After Approval

What Happens Next

  • Engineer reviews against published models and route constraints
  • Configuration confirmation or clarification request is returned
  • Production drawing is issued for formal approval
  • Only after drawing approval does manufacturing begin
  • Each assembly is tested; report format follows the approved specification
RFQ Questions

Specification & Ordering Questions

Questions about basic concepts, fiber selection logic or the difference between pre-terminated and field-terminated cable are answered in the Buyer’s Guide.

What information is required for a quotation?

Route or application, fiber grade and count, End-A and End-B interfaces (connector, polish, gender if applicable), overall length plus breakout dimensions and tolerance, cable construction and jacket, pulling protection details, installation environment, optical limits, quantity and required documents. Incomplete specifications delay configuration review.

What is the typical production lead time?

Defined configurations that pass drawing approval typically enter a 5–10 working day production cycle, followed by testing and packing. Complex breakouts, mixed connectors, hardened interfaces or special labeling can extend the schedule. Confirm the timeline with the quotation.

Do you supply individual IL/RL test reports?

Yes. Every assembly is tested. Request the exact report format required by your project acceptance criteria when submitting the specification.

Can End-A and End-B use different connectors and breakout lengths?

Yes, when clearly stated on the drawing. Mixed-connector assemblies and unequal breakout lengths require an explicit end-to-end map before production.

When is a pulling eye or pulling protection required?

When the connectorized end must pass through conduit, microduct or restricted openings. State the inside diameter, pulling direction, maximum tensile load and required head diameter so the correct protection can be fitted.

What happens if the submitted length is incorrect after manufacturing?

Factory-terminated length cannot be adjusted in the field without re-termination. Measure the complete installed route, including transitions, service loops and equipment reach, before approving the production drawing.

Drawing Approval Before Manufacturing

Ready to Submit a Complete Specification?

Every requirement is reviewed by a BWNFiber engineer against published models and the stated route constraints. You receive a configuration confirmation, a clarification request, or a production drawing — before any cable is manufactured.
