The JBX83431 9-meter LC/ST OM2 50/125 multimode fiber patch cable represents a premium solution for professional network infrastructure. Designed with bend-insensitive fiber technology, this cable maintains signal integrity even in challenging installation environments where traditional fiber may be vulnerable to microbending losses. The OFNP-rated jacketing provides flame resistance and low smoke generation, meeting stringent fire safety codes required in commercial and institutional settings. Key Technical Features: This duplex patch cable utilizes OM2 multimode fiber with a 50/125 micron core/cladding ratio, optimizing performance for gigabit and multi-gigabit Ethernet applications. Attenuation rates of 3.5 dB/km at 850nm and 1.0 dB/km at 1300nm ensure minimal signal loss over the 9-meter length. The LC/UPC to ST/UPC connector combination with Type A to B crossover polarity follows industry-standard configurations, guaranteeing compatibility with existing network equipment. Performance and Reliability: Insertion loss testing of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss ≥60dB exceed most network requirements. All attenuation measurements comply with ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, ensuring consistent performance across installations. Compliance and Certification: This cable meets TAA requirements for government and institutional procurement, carries full RoHS/ELV compliance, and adheres to EU directive 2002/95/EC. Available from multiple US distribution centers (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) with rapid shipment capabilities. Applications: Ideal for data center connectivity, LAN installations, telecommunications networks, and government/military systems requiring TAA compliance. The green color coding aids in network organization and cable management. Customization and Warranty: Custom lengths are available for specific installation requirements. The cable includes a 90-day limited warranty, backed by free standard shipping on qualifying orders.
