Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes OM2-grade multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding design, optimized for 850 nm and 1300 nm wavelengths. The duplex configuration provides separate transmit and receive channels, enabling full-duplex communication for uninterrupted data flow.
SC connectors offer a push-pull latching mechanism that ensures stable connections while allowing quick insertion and removal. The male connectors on both ends mate directly with SC female ports on switches, routers, media converters, and other fiber optic network devices.
Key Product Advantages
This cable combines durable construction with standardized connectivity to deliver consistent performance in demanding network environments. The multimode fiber design balances cost-effectiveness with reliable data transmission for most enterprise applications.
Reliable Connectivity
SC connectors provide secure, low-loss connections that maintain signal integrity across the cable's length.
- Push-pull latching mechanism
- Precision ceramic ferrules
- Low insertion loss
Easy Identification
The orange jacket follows industry standards for multimode fiber identification, simplifying cable management and troubleshooting.
- Standard OM2 color coding
- High visibility in racks
- Quick visual differentiation
Deployment / Use Cases
This SC/SC multimode fiber cable serves as an ideal patch cord for connecting network equipment within racks, between adjacent racks, or in server room environments where distances under 10 feet are required.
Common applications include connecting fiber optic switches to servers, linking media converters to network interface cards, establishing connections between storage area network components, and patching fiber distribution panels. The 9.8-foot length provides sufficient slack for proper cable management while minimizing excess cable that can clutter equipment racks.
Data Center Patching
Connect switches, routers, and servers within the same rack or between adjacent racks in data center environments.
Network Equipment Interconnection
Establish reliable fiber links between media converters, network interface devices, and optical transceivers.

FAQ
What type of fiber optic cable is this?
This is a multimode duplex fiber optic cable with OM2-grade 50/125 µm fiber. Multimode fiber is designed for short to medium distance transmissions, typically used within buildings or data centers. The duplex configuration means it contains two separate fibers—one for transmitting data and one for receiving—enabling full-duplex communication.
What connectors does this cable have on each end?
Both ends of this cable feature SC connectors. Each end has two SC male connectors (making it a duplex cable), so you'll find a total of four SC connectors—two on each end. SC connectors use a push-pull latching mechanism that provides secure connections while allowing for easy insertion and removal from compatible equipment.
What is the cable length and color?
This cable measures 9.8 feet (approximately 3 meters) in length, making it suitable for connections within equipment racks or between adjacent racks. The cable jacket is orange, which is the standard industry color for OM2 multimode fiber optic cables. This color coding helps with quick visual identification and proper cable management in complex installations.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This cable is designed for network devices that feature SC fiber optic ports. It can connect switches, routers, servers, media converters, storage devices, and other equipment with SC interfaces. The cable supports standard multimode fiber optic connections for data transmission in enterprise networks, data centers, and telecommunications applications.
