Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes single-mode technology with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification, optimized for long-haul network applications. The OS2 rating indicates it meets industry standards for outdoor and indoor use with low attenuation characteristics.
Both ends feature two ST male connectors each, providing a secure bayonet-style connection that prevents accidental disconnection. The cable is designed specifically for network devices, ensuring compatibility with switches, routers, and other fiber optic networking equipment.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable delivers clear, high-performance connectivity for network infrastructure with several distinct advantages.
Reliable Single-Mode Performance
The single-mode fiber with 9/125 µm construction provides excellent signal integrity over distance, making it suitable for backbone connections and longer network runs where multimode fiber might not be adequate.
- Low attenuation characteristics
- OS2 rating for indoor/outdoor use
- Supports high-bandwidth applications
Secure ST Connector Design
ST connectors offer a bayonet-style locking mechanism that ensures stable connections without accidental disconnection. The duplex configuration with two connectors per end supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels.
- Bayonet locking for secure fit
- Duplex configuration for full-duplex operation
- Male connectors for direct device connection
Deployment / Use Cases
This fiber optic cable is designed for professional network environments where reliable optical connectivity is essential. Its specific configuration makes it suitable for several common deployment scenarios.
In data center environments, use this cable to connect network switches to servers or storage arrays that feature ST fiber ports. The 3.3-foot length is ideal for rack-to-rack connections within the same cabinet or adjacent racks. For enterprise network infrastructure, deploy it between networking equipment in server rooms or telecommunications closets where single-mode fiber is required for longer distance connections.
Data Center Interconnects
Connect network switches, routers, or SAN equipment within server racks using the secure ST connectors and appropriate length for clean cable management.
Network Equipment Links
Establish reliable connections between networking devices that utilize ST fiber interfaces, ensuring high-speed data transfer with minimal signal degradation.

FAQ
What type of fiber does this cable use?
This cable uses single-mode OS2 fiber with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification. Single-mode fiber is designed for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss, making it ideal for backbone network connections and applications where data needs to travel farther than multimode fiber typically supports.
What connectors are on each end of the cable?
Both ends of the cable feature two ST male connectors each, for a total of four ST connectors. The ST connector uses a bayonet-style locking mechanism that provides a secure connection resistant to accidental disconnection. This duplex configuration supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels for full-duplex network communication.
What is the cable length and color?
The cable measures 3.3 feet (approximately 1 meter) in length, making it suitable for connections within equipment racks or between adjacent racks. It features a bright yellow jacket that provides both protection for the fiber and easy visual identification in cable management systems, helping technicians quickly distinguish it from other cables.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This cable is designed for network devices that feature ST fiber optic ports. It's compatible with network switches, routers, servers, storage arrays, and other networking equipment that utilizes ST connectors. The cable supports single-mode fiber applications and is rated OS2 for reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor environments when properly installed.
