FAQ
What is the length of this fiber optic cable?
This Axiom fiber optic cable has a length of 49.2 feet (approximately 15 meters). This length provides flexibility for connecting network equipment within racks, between cabinets, or across moderate distances in data centers or office environments, reducing the need for multiple shorter cables or extensions.
What types of connectors are on each end of the cable?
The cable features SC connectors on the first end and LC connectors on the second end. Specifically, it has 2 x SC Network-Male connectors on one end and 2 x LC Network-Male connectors on the other end. This hybrid design allows for connectivity between devices with different port types, such as linking SC-based equipment to LC-based switches or routers.
Is this cable single-mode or multimode?
This is a single-mode fiber optic cable. It uses a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification and is rated for OS2 standards, which are optimized for long-distance data transmission with low signal loss. Single-mode fiber is ideal for applications requiring high bandwidth over extended distances, such as backbone network links or data center interconnects.
What color is the cable and why does it matter?
The cable has a yellow jacket. Color coding is important in network environments for easy identification, organization, and troubleshooting. Yellow is commonly used for single-mode fiber cables, helping technicians quickly distinguish them from multimode cables (often orange or aqua) during installation or maintenance, which reduces errors and improves cable management efficiency.
