Gray fiber
Blue fiber is made up of a multi-gray colored fiber equipped with LC connectors at both
ends. It is referred to as Multi-mode LC Gray Fiber. The Gray Fibers are custom cut to
length for their application. The length is given on the protection boot of the LC connector.
Yellow fiber
Simplex fibers are Yellow in color and come in six different lengths (15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and
50 feet), as well as custom lengths.
Outside fiber
Outside fiber is the fiber connecting the Customer equipment to the Alcatel-Lucent 1665
DMXtend. Depending on the customers specifications, these fibers may be any
combination of SC, FC, or ST connectors. The length of these fibers depends on the
system interface setup. This fiber is usually referred to as the Outside Bay or Plant Fiber.
Outside Bay Fiber management should be specified by the customer. It is beyond the
scope of this document to specify the route or dressings that the fiber should take once it
leaves the equipment bays.
