Metric Units of Measure
The Metric System is the primary unit of measure used throughout this kit because fiber optic
technology was developed using the Metric System. For those of you prefer, the English measurement
system of inches, feet, etc., has been listed in parentheses behind the metric in most cases. The English
dimensions may not always be exact conversions.
