2.0x3.0mm: Has a thinner protective buffer (3.0mm) around the fiber. This makes it more flexible and smaller in diameter, ideal for indoor, behind-furniture, or inside enclosure use. 2.0x5.0mm: Has a thicker protective buffer (5.0mm) around the fiber. This makes it stronger, more rigid, and more ... Read More
