Why choose it

This patch cable is built for dependable 10G multimode links up to 300 meters at 850 nm. The LSZH jacket emits low smoke and no halogen in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces. Its exchangeable polarity feature allows quick swapping of TX/RX without re-termination, reducing downtime during installation or maintenance.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting SC-based switches to ST patch panels in data centers
• Linking servers to storage arrays in SAN environments
• Extending fiber runs in enterprise LAN backbones
• Replacing legacy multimode patch cords in campus networks

Good to know

The cable supports both 850 nm and 1300 nm wavelengths, providing flexibility for different transceiver types. It operates reliably in temperatures from -20°C to 70°C. Each connector is factory polished and tested to ensure low insertion loss and high return loss for stable signal integrity.
