Import Tips
• Document fiber count (8/12/24) and pitch spacing for multi-fiber ferrules to distinguish from single-fiber types
• Polish geometry (8° APC typical) must be specified; unpolished 'green' ferrules may not qualify as finished fired goods
• Avoid importing pre-loaded with fibers to prevent shift to Chapter 85 optical fiber assemblies
