The JBX83457 5-meter SC/SC OM2 50/125 multimode fiber patch cable represents the ideal solution for organizations requiring reliable, cost-effective fiber optic connectivity. This professional-grade cable combines performance, durability, and compliance to meet the demands of modern network infrastructure. Key Features & Specifications: This duplex multimode cable utilizes OM2 50/125 fiber with bend-insensitive technology, allowing installation in challenging environments without signal degradation. The SC/UPC connectors are configured in Type A to B crossover polarity—the industry standard for duplex patch cords—ensuring seamless integration with existing infrastructure. Operating across dual wavelengths (850nm and 1300nm), it achieves low attenuation rates of 3.5 dB/km at 850nm and 1.0 dB/km at 1300nm. Performance & Reliability: Tested in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards, this cable delivers exceptional insertion loss specifications (≤0.35dB, 0.15dB typical) and return loss of ≥60dB, ensuring minimal signal loss and data integrity. The compact 1.8mm outside diameter provides flexibility for routing through conduit and cable management systems. Compliance & Safety: TAA compliant and RoHS/ELV certified, this cable meets government procurement requirements and environmental standards. The OFNP jacketing classification ensures flame resistance and safety in plenum-rated installations. Applications: Ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, campus area networks (CANs), server-to-switch connections, and telecommunications infrastructure requiring multimode fiber connectivity over short to medium distances. Availability & Support: Ships from multiple U.S. locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and available in custom lengths for specialized installations.
