PATCH CORD cables 5m  Specifications

Long-distance and high-bandwidth capability

Fiber optic cables are designed for applications requiring high-speed data transmission over longer distances. The 5m length is ideal for intra-building or data center connections.

Immunity to interference

Since fiber cables transmit data as light pulses, they are immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring clean, reliable data transmission, especially in environments with high electrical activity.

Low signal attenuation

A 5m fiber cord will have very low signal attenuation, meaning the light signal degrades minimally over the cable’s length. Single-mode (OS2) fibers, for example, have minimal loss per kilometer.

Precision connectors

Fiber patch cords feature connectors with precision ferrules (commonly ceramic), which are highly polished to ensure minimal insertion and return loss. Common connector types include LC and SC.

Robust and safe jacket

A durable jacket, often LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), protects the delicate fibers. The standardized color coding (e.g., aqua for OM3/OM4, yellow for OS2) helps with easy identification.

Duplex and simplex options

Fiber cords are available in duplex (two fibers for two-way communication) or simplex (one fiber for one-way communication) configurations, depending on the application.
