One common question asked about products in general is: How long will the product last? Certainly, this is a difficult question to answer. However, there are mechanisms to predict the product’s life under certain considerations. In this paper, the expected life for an optical fiber cable was determined by following a series of experiments and applying the Arrhenius mathematical model. A good data fit was obtained and the life for the cable was determined.
