NeoPro specializes in the fiber optic cabling needs for residential and commercial integrators. We have several types of fiber to choose from, both in bulk, and as pre-terminated assemblies.
Bulk Fiber
NeoPro equipment only requires a single (simplex) fiber cable, however it is generally a good idea to install at least a duplex cable for redundancy and future use.
Indoor Cables - Simplex and Duplex multimode cables are typically orange in color. The aqua blue indicates 10G rated cable, and is suitable for long distance runs of up to 1,500 feet. The Invisafiber™ cable is 0.9mm diameter and transparent, similar to fishing line.
Outdoor Cables - We stock the 2 fiber rugged cables, but they are available as 4 fiber and larger. Call for information on larger cables. Typically these cables wil be installed at the rough in stage of a project, and are extremely tough for pulls through wood studs or through conduits both indoors and outdoor underground runs. They are mold and rot resistant, and can be used in harsh conditions.

Pre-Terminated LC-LC Assemblies
Although terminating fiber in the field is quick and easy, some jobs can be made easier by using preterminated and fully tested cable assemblies. There is absolutely no penalty for having extra length. Typically any extra is coiled up neatly at one end of the run.
If you have experience with installing and terminating multimode LC fiber, great! We don't need you to do anything different.
However if you are new to fiber optics, we have a very easy to use kit for terminating fiber. With the AFL FAST™ LC Connector Tool Kit, you can terminate a fiber in minutes, no glue, no heater trays, no polishing. It's as easy as strip, cleave, insert and lock in place, then test. To see just how easy it is, follow this link to a video demo.
This kit terminates all of our fiber types, including Invisafiber.
The AFL FAST™ LC Connector Tool Kit is available directly through Neothings.
