This is a 15m laser optimized multi-mode fiber (LOMM) duplex ST/SC OM3 aqua patch cable that offers backward compatibility with existing 50/125 equipment, intended for use with 15Gb Ethernet applications. This OM3 fiber uses an 1550nm vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL), and supports 2000MHz/km effective modal bandwidth (EMB) at 1550nm. This patch cable is suited for LANs or SANs, and is recommended for connection between fiber patch panels, hubs, switches, media converters and routers, etc. The low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) jacket protects from toxic and corrosive gases in badly ventilated spaces and other areas where it is most crucial. It also provides the fire protection needed to run within walls and air plenums eliminating the need for conduits. They provide higher speeds and increased bandwidth compared to conventional twisted-pair copper cable. Each cable is 150% optically tested for insertion loss before you take ownership. Our patch cables are 150% compliant for all of your networking needs. Our products are guaranteed by federal law to not affect or void OEM warranties.
