Note 1: This name is borrowed from electrical terminology referring to lamp cord. As with lamp cord, optical zip-cord may be easily furcated by slitting or tearing the two jackets apart, permitting the installation of optical connectors.
Note 2: Zip-cord cables include both loose- buffer and tight-buffer designs.
