The JBX83454 2.5m SC/SC OM2 50/125 multimode fiber patch cable represents premium connectivity for modern network infrastructure. Specifically engineered for organizations requiring cost-effective, reliable fiber optic solutions without compromising on performance or quality. Technical Excellence: This patch cable utilizes OM2 50/125 multimode fiber, optimized for wavelengths up to 1300nm, making it ideal for high-speed data transmission in local area networks and campus environments. The bend-insensitive fiber design allows for easier installation in tight spaces and around sharp corners, reducing installation time and potential fiber damage. Optical Performance: With insertion loss specifications of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss ≥60dB, this cable meets stringent telecommunications standards. Attenuation measurements of 3.5 dB/km at 850nm and 1.0 dB/km at 1300nm ensure optimal signal quality across operating wavelengths. All specifications are tested in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards. Connector Quality: The SC/UPC connectors feature Type A to B crossover polarity configuration, the most common duplex patch cord standard. UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) polarity minimizes back-reflection and ensures superior connection reliability compared to standard connectors. Compliance & Certification: TAA compliant and RoHS/ELV certified, this cable meets government procurement requirements and EU environmental directives. The OFNP jacketing rating ensures safe installation in building plenums. Versatility & Convenience: Available in custom lengths beyond the standard 2.5m, this cable accommodates various network configurations. Ships from multiple U.S. locations with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. The slim 1.8mm outer diameter facilitates clean cable management in dense rack environments. Applications: Ideal for data center interconnects, enterprise LAN expansion, server room connectivity, telecommunications networks, and educational institution infrastructure. Suitable for environments requiring cost-effective multimode solutions with enterprise-grade performance standards. Warranty & Support: Includes 90-day limited warranty providing peace of mind for your network investments.
