The JBX67969 7-meter LC/LC OM4 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable represents premium connectivity solutions for modern data center and enterprise networking infrastructure. This duplex multimode cable is specifically engineered to support 100GB Ethernet speeds, making it essential for high-bandwidth applications where performance and reliability are non-negotiable. Key Technical Specifications: This cable features OM4 50/125 multimode fiber construction with bend-insensitive fiber technology, allowing for easier installation in tight spaces without performance compromise. The duplex configuration provides two separate fiber strands in a single cable, enabling simultaneous bidirectional communication. LC/UPC connectors with Type A to B crossover polarity configuration ensure compatibility with standard network equipment. Performance Metrics: With insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss exceeding 20dB, this cable delivers exceptional signal integrity. Attenuation specifications of 3.5dB/km at 850nm and 1.0dB/km at 1300nm comply with industry standards ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001, ensuring predictable performance across different wavelength ranges. Compliance & Quality Assurance: TAA compliance certification qualifies this cable for government and enterprise procurement requirements. RoHS/ELV directive compliance ensures environmental responsibility. The cable features riser-rated (OFNR) jacketing suitable for vertical runs in building infrastructure. A 90-day limited warranty provides additional peace of mind. Applications & Use Cases: Ideal for data center interconnects, server clustering, storage area networks (SANs), and high-speed campus networking. The 7-meter length accommodates typical rack-to-switch distances. Custom lengths are available for specialized installations. Physical Specifications: Compact 1.8mm outside diameter facilitates neat cable management. Gray color provides professional appearance. Ships from multiple US locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) with free standard shipping on orders over $99. Maintenance & Best Practices: Keep connectors clean and protected when not in use. Avoid excessive bending beyond the bend-radius specifications. Store in a cool, dry environment. This cable is backed by professional testing standards and ready for immediate deployment in demanding network environments.
