FAQ
What are the connector types on this patch cable?
This patch cable features LC connectors on one end and SC connectors on the other end. Each end has two connectors in a duplex configuration, totaling four connectors: two LC and two SC. This design supports bidirectional communication and is compatible with a wide range of fiber optic equipment, making it versatile for various network setups.
What is the length of the cable, and is it suitable for long-distance runs?
The cable is 5 meters long, equivalent to 16.4 feet. It uses singlemode fiber with a 9/125 µm core, which is optimized for long-distance data transmission with minimal signal loss. This makes it ideal for backbone connections in data centers or between buildings, where reliable performance over extended distances is essential.
What does 'plenum-rated jacket' mean for this cable?
The plenum-rated jacket indicates that the cable's outer covering meets fire safety standards for installations in air-handling spaces, such as ceilings or raised floors. Made from premium PVC, it is fire-retardant and produces low smoke, ensuring compliance with building codes and enhancing safety in commercial and industrial environments.
How does singlemode fiber compare to multimode in this cable?
This cable uses singlemode fiber, which offers twice the bandwidth throughput of multimode fiber. Singlemode is designed for longer distances with less signal attenuation, making it superior for high-speed, long-haul applications. It supports higher data rates over extended runs, providing a future-proof solution for demanding network infrastructures.
What is included in the package with this patch cable?
The package contains the singlemode duplex patch cable itself, specifically a 5-meter duplex singlemode fiber patch cable with LC to SC connectors. No additional accessories are included, but the cable is ready for immediate use in connecting compatible fiber optic devices upon unboxing.
What warranty does this patch cable come with?
This patch cable comes with a lifetime limited warranty from the manufacturer. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship, reflecting the product's durability and reliability.
