MICROCONNECT MTRJ/UPC to MTRJ/UPC 0.5m OM1 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable, Orange

For multimode fiber links where space is tight and every connection counts, this 0.5-meter OM1 patch cable pairs MTRJ connectors on both ends with UPC polishing to keep insertion loss below 0.3 dB. The 62.5/125 µm core supports legacy 100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-SX runs at 850 nm, while the duplex PVC jacket stands up to daily handling in patch panels and wall outlets.

Highlights

• MTRJ/UPC to MTRJ/UPC connectors – compact, keyed duplex interface
• OM1 multimode fiber, 62.5/125 µm core/cladding
• 0.5 m length – ideal for short interconnects in racks or enclosures
• Orange PVC jacket, duplex zip-cord construction
• Insertion loss < 0.3 dB, return loss > 30 dB
• Operating temperature -20°C to 70°C

In daily use

Patch panels, media converters, and legacy fiber switches all benefit from the MTRJ form factor: one connector carries both transmit and receive fibers, halving the number of ports you need to manage. The UPC polish on each ferrule ensures a stable physical contact that resists back-reflection, while the orange jacket makes the cable easy to identify as OM1 in a crowded tray. At 0.5 m, it is cut for direct device-to-panel links without excess slack.
