Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes singlemode technology with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification, optimized for long-distance data transmission with low attenuation. The SC and ST connectors provide secure, push-pull locking mechanisms that ensure stable connections in network environments.
The 9.8 ft length offers flexibility for connecting devices within rack cabinets or between adjacent equipment, while the yellow color provides visual distinction from other cable types.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Fiber Optic Mode, Fiber Optic Cable Core/Cladding Specification, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable delivers reliable performance for network infrastructure with several distinct advantages.
Optimized for Distance
Singlemode fiber with 9/125 µm construction minimizes signal loss over longer runs compared to multimode alternatives, making it suitable for backbone connections and between-floor networking.
- Low attenuation characteristics
- OS2 grade for extended reach
Secure Connector Design
SC and ST connectors feature durable ceramic ferrules and positive locking mechanisms that maintain alignment and prevent accidental disconnection in vibration-prone environments.
- Push-pull SC connector
- Bayonet-style ST connector
Visual Identification
The bright yellow jacket allows for quick visual identification in cable management systems, reducing installation time and minimizing connection errors during maintenance or reconfiguration.
Deployment / Use Cases
This SC/ST singlemode fiber optic cable is designed for specific networking scenarios where reliable, point-to-point connections are required.
Common deployment environments include connecting network switches to routers in data centers, linking media converters in industrial settings, or establishing connections between network interface cards and optical transceivers. The 9.8 ft length is particularly useful for within-rack connections or short runs between adjacent equipment cabinets.
Data Center Interconnects
Connect switches, routers, or servers within the same rack or between adjacent racks using this simplex cable for transmit or receive lines in fiber optic networks.
Network Infrastructure
Establish connections between network devices that utilize SC and ST interfaces, including older equipment that may still use ST connectors alongside newer SC-equipped devices.

FAQ
What type of fiber does this cable use?
This cable uses singlemode OS2-grade fiber with a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification. Singlemode fiber is designed for longer distance transmissions with lower signal loss compared to multimode fiber, making it suitable for backbone network connections and applications requiring extended reach.
What connectors are on each end of this cable?
One end features an SC male connector, while the other end has an ST male connector. Both connectors use push-pull (SC) and bayonet-style (ST) locking mechanisms for secure connections. The male terminations are designed to interface with corresponding female ports on network equipment.
How long is this fiber optic cable?
This cable measures 9.8 feet (approximately 3 meters) in length. This intermediate length provides flexibility for connecting devices within the same rack, between adjacent racks, or for short runs in office or data center environments without excessive cable slack.
What is the color of this cable and why does it matter?
The cable features a bright yellow jacket. Color coding is important in network environments for quick visual identification, helping technicians distinguish between different cable types, reducing installation errors, and simplifying cable management during maintenance or reconfiguration tasks.
