Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes OM1-grade multimode fiber with a 62.5/125 µm core/cladding specification, supporting data transmission for network applications. The duplex configuration provides separate transmit and receive channels, ensuring full-duplex communication for optimal network performance.
Both ends of the cable are terminated with ST connectors, featuring a bayonet-style locking mechanism that prevents accidental disconnection. The male connectors on each end are designed to mate with corresponding female ST ports on network devices, creating a reliable optical link.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable delivers consistent optical performance with the durability needed for professional networking environments. The ST connectors provide a secure connection that resists vibration and accidental disconnection, while the multimode fiber supports reliable data transmission for network applications.
Reliable Connectivity
ST connectors feature a positive locking mechanism that ensures stable connections even in environments with movement or vibration.

FAQ
What type of fiber optic cable is this?
This is a multimode duplex fiber optic cable with OM1-grade 62.5/125 µm core specification. It features ST connectors on both ends and has a 16.4 ft (5m) length with an orange jacket for easy identification in network environments.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This cable is designed for network devices that support ST connectors and multimode fiber. It's compatible with fiber optic network switches, routers, servers, media converters, and other equipment featuring ST ports for optical connectivity in data center and enterprise environments.
What is the advantage of ST connectors?
ST connectors feature a bayonet-style locking mechanism that provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection. This prevents accidental disconnection in environments with equipment movement or vibration, ensuring stable optical performance for network data transmission.
Why is the cable orange?
The orange jacket follows industry standards for identifying multimode fiber optic cables. This color coding helps network technicians quickly distinguish multimode cables from singlemode cables (typically yellow) during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting procedures.
