Q: 1. Can you send video over this cable with a Fiber Optic Converter?

A: The Camplex Simplex LC to LC Singlemode Fiber Optic Patch Cable (328.1', Yellow) BH #CAMS9LCLC100 does support video transfer. It must be connected to equipment that is rated for video transmission.

Q: 2. Does this cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?

A: 24AGW

Q: 4. Can this cable be used outdoors?

A: The short answer: yes, it can be used outdoors. Wasn't sure if you were talking about for permanent installation or temporary. For a more permanent installation or somewhere where there is a lot of foot or vehicle traffic, you'll probably want to get the tactical version of the cable instead. However, we have used these cables (in addition to various lengths of tactical cables) in all kinds of weather for interconnecting Blackmagic gear without problems (as always, do everything that you can to protect the ends from the elements).

Q: 5. What is the AWG of the pairs? Is it 23 or 24 awg? Are the wires stranded or solid? Are the wires 100% copper or some type of alloy?
