The JBX45190 OM3 SC/SC multimode fiber patch cable represents a professional-grade solution for modern network infrastructure. At 0.5 meters in length, this compact cable is ideal for patching between fiber-enabled equipment within close proximity, such as between patch panels and network switches in data center environments. Technical Excellence: This cable utilizes OM3 50/125 multimode fiber, the industry standard for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications over short distances. The fiber core delivers attenuation of 3.5 dB/km at 850nm wavelength, ensuring minimal signal degradation over the 0.5m span. With typical insertion loss of just 0.15dB (maximum 0.35dB) and return loss exceeding 60dB, this cable meets stringent performance requirements for enterprise-grade installations. Durable Construction: The cable features bend-insensitive OFNP jacketing with a slim 1.8mm outside diameter, allowing for flexible routing through tight cable management pathways without compromising performance. This design is particularly valuable in high-density data center environments where space optimization is critical. The duplex configuration with SC/UPC connectors provides reliable, low-reflection connections essential for maintaining signal integrity. Compliance & Reliability: As a TAA-compliant component, this cable meets government procurement standards, making it suitable for institutional and federal projects. Full RoHS and ELV directive compliance ensures environmental responsibility. The cable ships standard from multiple US locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, and Beaufort SC), supporting expedited deployment needs. Applications: Ideal for data centers, telecommunications facilities, enterprise networks, and any scenario requiring short-run, high-performance multimode fiber connectivity. The Type A to B crossover configuration is the industry standard for duplex patch cord applications. Customization Available: While this product is optimized at 0.5m, custom lengths are available to meet specific installation requirements, providing flexibility for unique network configurations. Warranty & Support: Each cable includes a 90-day limited warranty, demonstrating manufacturer confidence in product quality and durability.
