Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic patch cable utilizes 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber that meets OM4 specifications, supporting high-bandwidth data transmission for modern network demands. The bend-insensitive fiber design minimizes signal loss when the cable is bent or flexed during installation, ensuring consistent performance in real-world deployment scenarios.
The cable terminates with industry-standard SC male connectors on one end and LC male connectors on the other, providing a reliable interface for connecting network equipment with different port types. The OFNP plenum-rated jacket is fire-retardant and low-smoke producing, making it suitable for installation in plenum spaces where air circulation occurs.
Key Product Advantages
The Axiom BENDnFLEX fiber optic cable combines several features that make it stand out for professional network installations. Its bend-insensitive fiber technology provides installation flexibility without compromising signal quality, while the plenum-rated construction ensures compliance with building safety codes for various installation environments.
Reliable Connectivity
Designed for consistent performance in network environments, this cable maintains signal integrity across its full 262.5-foot length, supporting reliable data transmission between network devices.
- OM4 multi-mode fiber specification
- 50/125 µm core/cladding design
- SC to LC connector configuration
Installation Flexibility
The bend-insensitive fiber allows for tighter bend radii during installation without significant signal degradation, while the plenum-rated OFNP jacket enables installation in air-handling spaces where standard cables cannot be used.
- Bend-insensitive fiber technology
- OFNP plenum-rated jacket
- Silver color for easy identification
Deployment / Use Cases
This LC to SC fiber optic patch cable is ideal for connecting network equipment in data centers, server rooms, and enterprise networking environments where different connector types are present. The 262.5-foot length makes it suitable for longer runs between equipment racks or across larger installation spaces.
Common applications include connecting switches to servers, linking network storage devices, or establishing connections between networking equipment with SC and LC ports. The plenum rating makes it appropriate for installation in ceiling plenums, raised floors, and other air-handling spaces where fire safety regulations require plenum-rated cabling. The silver color provides visual distinction for cable management and identification in complex installations.

FAQ
What type of connectors does this fiber optic cable have?
This cable features SC male connectors on one end and LC male connectors on the other end. The SC connector provides a push-pull latching mechanism for secure connections, while the LC connector offers a smaller form factor that's ideal for high-density installations. Both connectors use standard ceramic ferrers for precise fiber alignment and reliable optical performance.
What does 'plenum-rated' mean for this cable?
Plenum-rated indicates that the cable's OFNP jacket meets specific fire safety standards for installation in plenum spaces—areas used for air circulation in buildings, such as above drop ceilings or below raised floors. Plenum-rated cables produce less smoke and are more fire-retardant than standard cables, making them suitable for installations where building codes require enhanced fire safety measures.
What is bend-insensitive fiber technology?
Bend-insensitive fiber is designed to maintain signal integrity even when the cable is bent or flexed during installation. Traditional fiber optic cables can experience significant signal loss when bent beyond certain radii, but bend-insensitive fiber minimizes this loss, allowing for tighter bends and more flexible routing without compromising performance. This technology is particularly valuable in crowded cable pathways or installations with space constraints.
What does OM4 rating mean for this fiber optic cable?
OM4 is a multi-mode fiber optic specification that supports higher bandwidth and longer distances than previous OM standards. OM4 fiber can typically support 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 550 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 150 meters, making it suitable for high-speed network applications. The 50/125 µm core/cladding dimensions are standard for OM4 multi-mode fiber.
