Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes OM1 grade multimode fiber with a 62.5/125 µm core/cladding specification, optimized for short to medium distance applications typically found in building backbones and data center interconnects. The multimode design supports multiple light propagation paths, making it compatible with a wide range of networking equipment using LED or VCSEL light sources.
The connector configuration features two ST male connectors on the first end and two MT-RJ male connectors on the second end, creating a complete duplex pathway for transmit and receive channels. This balanced design ensures proper polarity maintenance for error-free data transmission across the 39.4-foot span.
Key Product Advantages
This cable provides a practical bridging solution between different connector standards while maintaining optical performance characteristics suitable for most enterprise networking requirements. The lifetime warranty underscores its durability and reliability in continuous operation environments.
Connector Compatibility
Enables direct connection between ST-based equipment and MT-RJ ports without requiring separate adapters or conversion modules.
- ST to MT-RJ interface bridging
- Male connectors on both ends
- Direct physical compatibility
Optical Performance
OM1 62.5/125 µm multimode fiber delivers reliable performance for distances up to several hundred meters at common networking speeds.
- 62.5/125 µm core specification
- Multimode light propagation
- Standard OM1 performance grade
Deployment / Use Cases
This ST to MT-RJ fiber optic cable is ideal for network infrastructure upgrades where newer equipment with MT-RJ interfaces needs to connect to existing ST-based systems. The 39.4-foot length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack, cabinet-to-cabinet, or equipment-to-patch-panel installations in data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications closets.
Common applications include connecting fiber switches with MT-RJ ports to legacy storage arrays or servers with ST interfaces, extending fiber runs between different equipment generations, and creating temporary links during network migrations or equipment replacements. The orange jacket facilitates easy identification in cable management systems and helps distinguish it from singlemode fiber runs.
Network Migration Scenarios
Bridge between older ST-based network equipment and newer MT-RJ compatible devices during phased upgrades or technology transitions.
Data Center Interconnects
Connect equipment across adjacent racks or within the same cabinet where different connector types are present on source and destination devices.

FAQ
What types of equipment can I connect with this fiber optic cable?
This cable connects devices with ST fiber ports to equipment with MT-RJ fiber ports. It's designed for network devices such as switches, routers, servers, and storage arrays that use these connector types. The duplex configuration supports full-duplex communication between compatible equipment.
What does the 62.5/125 µm specification mean for this cable?
The 62.5/125 µm specification refers to the fiber core and cladding diameters. The 62.5 µm core carries the light signals, while the 125 µm cladding contains the light within the core. This is the standard dimension for OM1 multimode fiber, which is optimized for short to medium distance applications using LED or VCSEL light sources common in enterprise networking.
How does the ST to MT-RJ connector configuration work?
One end of the cable has two ST male connectors, while the opposite end has two MT-RJ male connectors. This creates a direct physical bridge between the different connector standards. The ST connectors use a bayonet coupling mechanism, while the MT-RJ connectors use a small form-factor RJ-style latch. Both ends are male connectors designed to plug directly into corresponding female ports on network equipment.
What is the maximum recommended distance for this OM1 multimode cable?
As an OM1 grade multimode fiber cable with 62.5/125 µm core, it supports distances appropriate for most intra-building and data center applications. While exact distance limits depend on data rate and equipment specifications, OM1 fiber typically supports 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet up to 220 meters and 10GBASE-SR up to 33 meters. The 39.4-foot length is well within these operational ranges.
