Why are branded indoor 4-core optical cables so expensive

Why are branded indoor 4-core optical cables so expensive

Modern optic cables feature advanced characteristics such as bend-resistance and enhanced signal integrity, which can affect pricing but provide superior long-term value through reduced maintenance needs and extended service life. Here's a general pricing reference: These are indicative prices based on standard configurations. Why are end-user fiber optic cables so expensive? For example, Thunderbolt Fiber Optic cables currently cost $300-400 (with connectors). These include the quality of raw materials, manufacturing standards, jacket type, length, and additional features such as armored protection or UV resistance. Single-mode fiber, designed for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss, tends to be more expensive than multi-mode fiber, which is better suited for shorter distances within buildings or campuses.
