Cabling is offering a variety of OM2 Simplex Patch Cord


For a long time 62.5/125 um (OM1) and conventional 50/125 um multi-mode fiber OM2 Simplex Patch Cord were widely deployed in premises applications. These fibers easily support applications ranging from Ethernet (10 Mbit/s) to Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbit/s) and, because of their relatively large core size, were ideal for use with LED transmitters. Newer deployments often use laser-optimized 50/125 um multi-mode fiber (OM3). And you will find OM2 Simplex Patch Cord that is normally used in pairs. It’s designed for use in Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-LX applications. It is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3z application standards. Mode Conditioning Cables are essential in applications where new high-speed Gigabit 1000BASE-LX routers and switches are being deployed into existing multimode plants. In FiberStore, you’ll find SC OM1 Mode Conditioning Patch Cable and 10G OM2 Simplex Patch Cordand many others tpyes of OM1 patch cables.Fibers that meet this designation provide sufficient bandwidth to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters. Optical fiber manufacturers have greatly refined their manufacturing process since that standard was issued and cables can be created that support 10 GbE up to 550 meters. Cables can often be distinguished by jacket color: for 62.5/125 um (OM1) and 50/125 um OM2 Simplex Patch Cord, orange jackets are recommended, while Aqua is recommended for 50/125 um laser optimized OM3 and OM4 fiber.
