Product Features
Technical Overview
This duplex fiber optic cable utilizes multimode technology with 50/125 µm core/cladding specifications, optimized for OM2 performance standards. The ST connectors provide a bayonet-style locking mechanism that ensures stable connections without accidental disconnection.
With identical 2 x ST male connectors on both ends, this cable creates a symmetrical connection path suitable for patch panel applications, switch-to-switch links, or connecting network devices in server rooms and telecommunications closets.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable combines practical design with reliable performance for network connectivity needs. The lifetime warranty provides long-term assurance of quality and durability in commercial installations.
Consistent Connection Quality
ST connectors on both ends ensure matching interface compatibility, reducing connection errors and simplifying inventory management.
- Bayonet locking mechanism
- Precision-polished ferrules
- Durable connector housing
Visual Identification
The orange jacket color follows industry standards for multimode fiber identification, making cable tracing and management more efficient in complex installations.
- Standard multimode color coding
- High visibility in racks
- Easy differentiation from singlemode cables
Deployment / Use Cases
This ST/ST multimode duplex cable serves as an ideal solution for connecting network equipment within data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications infrastructure. The 23-foot length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel connections without excessive cable slack.
Common applications include linking switches to servers, connecting fiber media converters, establishing backbone links between network closets, and extending existing fiber runs in enterprise environments. The OM2 specification makes it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and other multimode fiber applications.

FAQ
What type of fiber is used in this cable?
This cable uses multimode fiber with 50/125 µm core/cladding specifications, meeting OM2 performance standards. Multimode fiber is designed for short to medium distance transmissions typically within buildings or campuses, making it suitable for most enterprise network applications.
What connectors are on each end of this cable?
Both ends of this cable feature identical ST connectors, specifically 2 x ST Network - Male connectors on each end. This symmetrical ST/ST configuration creates a duplex connection path with matching interfaces, ideal for patch panel applications and equipment with ST ports.
What is the length of this fiber optic cable?
This cable measures 23 feet (approximately 7 meters) in length. This provides sufficient reach for most rack-to-rack connections in data centers or equipment-to-patch-panel links in network closets while minimizing excess cable that requires management.
What color is the cable jacket and why does it matter?
The cable has an orange jacket, which 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, troubleshooting, and cable management activities.
