FAQ
What is the difference between singlemode and multimode fiber?
Singlemode fiber, like in this cable, uses a smaller core (9/125 µm) to transmit a single light mode, allowing for longer distances and higher bandwidth with less signal loss compared to multimode fiber. It's ideal for backbone links, WANs, and applications over 550 meters, whereas multimode is typically used for shorter runs within buildings.
What devices are compatible with this SC to LC cable?
This cable is compatible with network devices featuring SC or LC ports, such as switches, routers, media converters, and optical network terminals. The SC male connector fits into SC female ports, and the LC male connector fits into LC female ports, making it versatile for connecting different equipment types in data centers or enterprise networks.
What does the 9/125 µm specification mean?
The 9/125 µm specification refers to the core and cladding diameters of the fiber optic cable. The core is 9 micrometers, which carries the light signal, and the cladding is 125 micrometers, surrounding the core to reflect light back inward. This size is standard for singlemode fiber, ensuring optimal performance for high-speed data transmission over long distances.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This cable is designed for indoor use in controlled environments like data centers and office networks. For outdoor applications, specialized outdoor-rated cables with additional shielding and weatherproofing are recommended to protect against moisture, UV exposure, and temperature extremes.
