QUESTION: For fibersect, what is the resulting cut roughly equivalent to?
ANSWER:
When cleaving ferrule in preparation for polishing, it is irrelevant if the cleaved end-faces are smooth or rough texture from the resulting cut BUT, to answer the question, for fibersect the resulting cut is roughly equivalent to polishing with a 30um polishing film.
