Datasheets, test evidence and sample approval
A useful document identifies the product it covers. Before requesting a file, tell us the exact model or configuration, destination market and purpose: technical selection, sample approval, tender submission or incoming inspection.
TECHNICAL FILES
Request the right datasheet
Ask for the model, configuration, revision, dimensions, performance conditions and included accessories.
Use the document request checklist →TEST EVIDENCE
Check results in context
Review identification, wavelength or setup, test method, acceptance limits and whether results cover a sample or batch.
See checks by product group →SAMPLE RECORD
Keep one agreed reference
Record the specification revision, tested features, approved changes and checks for the next order.
Follow the approval workflow →Document availability and scope vary by product. Request model-specific files before ordering; a general brochure or logo is not evidence that every item meets the same requirement.

Fiber optic sourcing resource FAQs
Where should a distributor start when sourcing FTTH products?
Start with your application and bill of materials: drop cable, splitters, patch cords, termination boxes, installation tools and test equipment. Use the MOQ and specification checklist to request comparable quotations for each line.
What are LinkFiber’s standard minimum order quantities?
Examples include G.657A2 drop cable at 10 km, splitters / patch cords / pigtails at 500 pcs, adapters at 5,000 pcs and fast connectors at 1,000 pcs. Fusion splicers and OTDRs start at 1 unit. See the full category MOQ table.
Can a small distributor buy below the standard MOQ?
Yes. For regular specifications available from stock, LinkFiber can offer a lower MOQ to support trial purchases and replenishment. Send your product specification and target quantity; our team will confirm the available option for each item.
How quickly can LinkFiber dispatch G.657A2 drop cable?
LinkFiber holds substantial stock of regular 1-core and 2-core G.657A2 drop cable. Stocked configurations can usually be dispatched in 3–5 days after order details and payment are confirmed. Confirm jacket, construction, reel length and quantity; shipping transit is additional.
Which files should I request before approving an order?
Request a datasheet for the quoted configuration, applicable test evidence, packing details and a sample approval record where needed. The quality document guide explains what the files should identify. Documents and test scope are checked for the selected model.
Can I get a quotation with only a product photo?
Yes. Email a product photo or existing link, estimated quantity and destination to sales@linkfiberpro.com. The LinkFiber team will help confirm specifications and prepare a quotation.
Discuss your fiber optic project
Share your product or model, key specifications, quantities and destination. A photo or existing product link is enough to start.
