Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes OM4-grade 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber, optimized for high-bandwidth applications such as 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE over short to medium distances. The bend insensitive design minimizes signal loss when the cable is routed around corners or through congested pathways, ensuring consistent performance in real-world installations. The LC connectors on both ends provide a secure, low-loss interface compatible with standard LC ports on switches, routers, and transceivers.
The OFNP plenum jacket meets stringent fire safety standards, emitting low smoke and zero halogen in case of fire, which is critical for installations in plenum spaces. The cable is environmentally friendly and TAA compliant, making it suitable for government and institutional procurement where regulatory adherence is required.
Key Product Advantages
The Axiom BENDnFLEX cable combines advanced fiber technology with practical design features to meet the demands of modern network environments. Its bend insensitive construction allows for flexible routing without compromising signal quality, reducing the risk of installation damage and maintenance issues. The plenum-rated OFNP jacket enhances safety and compliance, while the durable LC connectors ensure reliable mating cycles and long-term connectivity.
Bend Insensitive Fiber
Minimizes signal loss in tight bends, ideal for high-density cabling and constrained spaces.
- Reduces installation stress
- Maintains optical performance
- Extends cable lifespan
Plenum Safety
OFNP jacket meets fire safety standards for use in air-handling plenum spaces without additional conduit.
- Low smoke emission
- Zero halogen
- Compliant with building codes
Deployment / Use Cases
This LC/LC fiber optic patch cable is versatile for various network deployment scenarios. In data centers, it connects switches to servers or storage arrays, supporting high-speed backbone links. For enterprise offices, it links network closets to workgroup switches or extends connections between floors. The plenum rating makes it suitable for installations above drop ceilings or in raised floors where fire safety is a priority.
Common use cases include connecting SAN/NAS devices, linking VoIP equipment, and patching in telecom rooms. Its reliability and bend resistance also make it ideal for temporary setups or trade show environments where cables may be frequently handled and repositioned.
Data Center Patching
Connect core switches to top-of-rack devices with high-density LC ports for efficient 10GbE/40GbE networks.
Enterprise Backbone
Extend network segments between buildings or floors with durable, long-distance fiber links.

FAQ
What is the length of this Axiom fiber optic cable?
This Axiom BENDnFLEX fiber optic patch cable has a total length of 229.7 feet (approximately 70 meters). This length is suitable for medium to long-distance runs within data centers, between network closets, or in office environments where extended reach is required without signal degradation.
What type of connectors does this cable have on each end?
Both ends of the cable feature LC network male connectors in a duplex configuration. Each end has one LC male connector, making it an LC/LC patch cable. This connector type is widely used in high-density networking equipment for its compact size and reliable performance with multi-mode fiber.
What does the OFNP plenum rating mean for this cable?
OFNP stands for Optical Fiber Non-conductive Plenum, indicating that the cable jacket meets strict fire safety standards for use in plenum spaces (air-handling areas like above drop ceilings or under raised floors). It emits low smoke and no halogen when exposed to fire, allowing installation without conduit in many commercial buildings, which reduces cost and complexity.
Is this cable bend insensitive, and why is that important?
Yes, this cable uses bend insensitive multi-mode fiber technology. This design minimizes signal loss when the cable is bent or routed around tight corners, which is crucial in high-density installations where space is limited. It helps maintain optical performance and reduces the risk of damage during installation or in dynamic environments.
