[john.murg]

Hello,

For part# MGBSX1, does this support fiber with a core size of:

a. 62.5 microns

b. 50 microns

c. both.

I was unable to find this information at the two below urls:

I checked and the cable size is 62.5 multimode.

Hi John,

The MGBSX1  actually will work with both  50um and 62.5um Multimode cable.
