Descriptions
A Multimode 50/125µm OM3 simplex SC UPC 3mm fiber optic patch cable is a type of fiber optic cable with specific characteristics:
Multimode: This indicates that the cable is designed for multimode fiber, which can carry multiple light paths or modes simultaneously. It's generally used for shorter-distance data transmission compared to single-mode fiber.
50/125µm: This refers to the core and cladding diameters of the fiber. The core diameter is 50 micrometers, and the cladding diameter is 125 micrometers. This specification is typical for OM3 multimode fibers, which are optimized for high-speed data transmission.
OM3: OM3 is a category of multimode fiber designed for high-speed applications. It supports data rates up to 10 Gbps over 300 meters and is commonly used in data centers and high-bandwidth networking applications.
Simplex: This means the cable contains a single fiber strand, allowing for one-way data transmission. To achieve bidirectional communication, two simplex cables or a duplex cable would be needed.
SC UPC: The SC (Subscriber Connector) is a type of connector known for its durability and push-pull design. The UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) polish on the connector end minimizes signal reflection, which improves performance.
3mm: This indicates the outer diameter of the cable jacket. The 3mm jacket is commonly used in patch cables, providing a balance between flexibility and durability.
Main Features
Improved Modal Bandwidth: OM3 fiber supports higher modal bandwidth, allowing for faster data transfer rates and better performance in high-speed networks.
Compatibility: The SC UPC connector is widely used and compatible with various network equipment, ensuring ease of integration and replacement.
Durability: The 3mm outer jacket provides protection against physical damage while remaining flexible for easier handling and installation.
Cost-Effective: Multimode fibers, particularly OM3, are often more cost-effective for shorter distances compared to single-mode fibers, making them a practical choice for many data center and enterprise applications.
These features collectively enhance the performance, reliability, and versatility of the fiber optic patch cable in modern networking environments.
