The JBX83517 5-meter OM2 50/125 multimode fiber patch cable represents a dependable solution for connecting fiber optic equipment in modern network infrastructures. Designed with professional-grade specifications, this duplex cable combines robust construction with exceptional optical performance to support mission-critical applications. **Technical Excellence** Features LC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors in Type A to B crossover configuration, the standard polarity for duplex patch cords. The OM2 50/125 multimode fiber core delivers reliable performance across standard operating wavelengths, with attenuation specifications of 3.5 dB/km at 850nm or 1.0 dB/km at 1300nm. Measured insertion loss of ≤0.35dB (typical 0.15dB) and return loss of ≥60dB ensure optimal signal integrity. All optical performance has been validated to ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001 standards. **Durable Construction** Constructed with bend-insensitive OFNP-rated jacketing and a compact 1.8mm outside diameter, this cable withstands the rigors of installation in tight conduits and equipment racks. The bend-insensitive fiber technology reduces stress on the glass core, extending cable lifespan and improving reliability in high-density deployment scenarios. **Compliance & Certification** Fully TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant and RoHS/ELV certified per EU directive 2002/95/EC, making it suitable for government procurement and environmentally regulated markets. Ships from multiple U.S. locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC) for rapid delivery. **Practical Applications** Ideal for data center interconnections, network upgrades, disaster recovery sites, and any multimode fiber-based infrastructure. The 5-meter length accommodates standard rack spacing and equipment layouts. Custom lengths are available for specialized installations. **Support & Warranty** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty. Free standard shipping applies to orders exceeding $99. This cable is engineered for professionals who demand reliability and performance in fiber optic networks.
