Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes multimode technology with 62.5/125 µm core/cladding specifications, optimized for short to medium-distance network connections. The OM1 rating ensures compatibility with legacy and current multimode fiber systems, supporting data transmission for various network protocols and speeds.
The cable terminates with industry-standard SC and ST connectors, both in male configurations. The SC connectors offer a push-pull latching mechanism for secure connections, while the ST connectors feature a bayonet-style coupling for quick installation and removal. This dual-connector design provides flexibility for connecting different types of network equipment interfaces.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable combines robust construction with practical design features that enhance network reliability and installation efficiency. The multimode fiber core supports high bandwidth for data-intensive applications, while the durable orange jacket provides easy identification and protection in cable management systems.

FAQ
What is the length of this Axiom fiber optic cable?
This Axiom fiber optic cable measures 8 meters, which equals 26.2 feet. This length provides sufficient reach for typical rack-to-rack or within-rack network connections in data center and enterprise environments while maintaining optimal signal integrity for multimode fiber transmission.
What types of connectors does this cable have on each end?
One end of the cable features two SC male connectors, while the other end features two ST male connectors. This SC-to-ST configuration allows connection between network equipment with different interface types, providing flexibility without requiring additional adapters for cross-connector installations.
What does '62.5/125 µm' mean for this fiber optic cable?
The 62.5/125 µm specification refers to the core and cladding diameters of the multimode fiber. The 62.5-micron core carries the light signals, while the 125-micron cladding contains and guides the light within the core. This is a standard multimode fiber size compatible with OM1-rated systems for network applications.
What is the warranty coverage for this Axiom cable?
Axiom provides a lifetime limited warranty for this fiber optic cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the product's usable life, offering assurance of quality and durability for network infrastructure investments where reliable connectivity is essential.
