Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes OM2 multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding specification, optimized for 850 nm and 1300 nm wavelength transmission. The duplex construction provides separate transmit and receive channels in a single cable assembly, simplifying installation and reducing cable clutter compared to separate simplex cables.
The cable terminates with industry-standard SC connectors on one end and ST connectors on the other, with male connectors on both ends for direct equipment-to-equipment connections. This SC/ST configuration accommodates common network equipment interfaces while maintaining reliable optical performance.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable delivers reliable performance with several practical advantages for network installations. The lifetime warranty provides long-term confidence in the cable's durability and performance consistency across various deployment scenarios.

Deployment / Use Cases
This SC/ST multimode fiber optic cable serves multiple practical applications in modern network infrastructure. Its 6-meter length makes it ideal for connecting equipment within racks, between adjacent racks, or across small to medium-sized network closets where direct equipment interconnection is required.
Common deployment scenarios include connecting switches to servers in data centers, linking network equipment in telecommunications rooms, or establishing connections between media converters and network devices. The SC/ST configuration specifically addresses environments where equipment uses different connector types, eliminating the need for adapter-based solutions.
Data Center Applications
Connect servers to top-of-rack switches or link network equipment within the same rack enclosure using this direct-attach fiber solution.
Network Equipment Interconnection
Bridge equipment with SC and ST interfaces in telecommunications rooms, network closets, or enterprise wiring centers.

FAQ
What type of fiber optic cable is this?
This is an OM2-grade multimode fiber optic cable with 50/125 µm core/cladding specification. It uses multimode fiber technology optimized for short to medium distance data transmission, typically supporting applications up to several hundred meters depending on data rate and equipment specifications.
What connectors does this cable have?
The cable features SC connectors on one end and ST connectors on the other end, with male connectors on both ends. Each end has two connectors (duplex configuration) for separate transmit and receive channels, totaling four connectors: two SC male connectors and two ST male connectors.
What is the cable length?
This fiber optic cable measures 6 meters in length, which equals approximately 19.7 feet. This length provides flexibility for connecting equipment within racks, between adjacent racks, or across network closets without requiring excessive cable management for slack.
What color is the cable jacket?
The cable features a bright orange PVC jacket. This color follows industry standards for multimode fiber optic cable identification and provides high visibility in cable management systems, making it easier to trace and identify during installation and maintenance procedures.
