Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber patch cable utilizes duplex multi-mode OM2 fiber, which is optimized for short to medium-distance network links. The 50/125 µm core size balances performance and cost-effectiveness for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The cable is terminated with LC connectors, known for their small form factor and secure latching mechanism, which reduces accidental disconnections in high-vibration environments.
The riser-rated OFNR jacket meets stringent fire safety standards for use in building riser spaces, providing an extra layer of protection. With no shielding required for its intended use, the cable maintains signal integrity through precise fiber alignment and Physical Contact (PC) polishing on the connectors.
Key Product Advantages
This cable combines durability with performance, featuring a molded pull-resistant connector design that withstands repeated insertions and removals. Strain relief boots protect the fiber termination points from bending stress, extending the cable's operational lifespan in dynamic patching scenarios.
