Product Features
Technical Overview
This cable utilizes OM4-grade multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding design, optimized for bandwidth-intensive applications. The bend-insensitive construction minimizes signal loss when the cable is routed around obstacles or through congested pathways.
Each end terminates with two LC male connectors, providing a duplex connection for bidirectional data flow. The LC interface is compact and widely adopted in networking equipment, making this cable compatible with a broad range of switches, routers, and servers.
Key Product Advantages
The BENDnFLEX design offers superior durability and flexibility compared to standard fiber cables. This makes it ideal for installations where cables must navigate tight server racks, under-floor conduits, or overhead trays without compromising performance.
Enhanced Safety
The halogen-free LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke emission in case of fire, protecting both equipment and personnel in enclosed spaces.
- Low Smoke Zero Halogen
- Meets fire safety codes
- Suitable for plenum areas
Reliable Connectivity
With LC connectors on both ends, this cable ensures a secure, low-loss connection that maintains signal integrity across network devices.
- Duplex LC connectors
- Precision alignment
- Reduced insertion loss
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is engineered for enterprise networking environments where reliability and safety are paramount. It seamlessly integrates into data centers, server rooms, and office networks, connecting switches, storage arrays, and network appliances.
Common applications include linking top-of-rack switches to servers, extending connections between network cabinets, and supporting high-speed backbone links within a building. The bend-insensitive fiber is particularly valuable in crowded racks or where cables must be routed through tight conduits.
