InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable SC/ST 50/125µm OM4 25m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable SC/ST 50/125µm OM4 25m is a high-performance network solution designed for demanding data transmission environments. Featuring an OM4 multi-mode fiber optic type and a 50/125µm core diameter, this duplex cable ensures reliable, high-speed communication over longer distances. Equipped with two SC connectors on one end and two ST connectors on the other, it provides seamless connectivity between various networking hardware. The robust construction utilizes low smoke zero halogen jacket materials to enhance safety in enterprise installations, while the full duplex capability allows simultaneous bidirectional data flow.

Advantages

This fiber optic cable offers exceptional signal integrity and high bandwidth capacity thanks to its OM4 classification, making it suitable for modern high-speed data networks. The inclusion of low smoke zero halogen jacket materials ensures reduced toxic gas emissions in the event of a fire, increasing safety in indoor environments. With a generous length of 25 meters, it allows for flexible routing between server racks and network devices without excessive signal degradation. Each cable comes with an individual test report, verifying its quality and operational readiness right out of the package.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches and routers with SC and ST interfaces
• Enterprise local area networks requiring high-speed multi-mode transmission
• Data center structured cabling over intermediate distances
• Telecommunication setups demanding reliable full duplex communication

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not compatible with networking equipment that requires single-mode fiber infrastructure or different connector types such as LC or RJ45 without appropriate adapters. Additionally, the 25-meter length may be excessive for immediate desktop connections or too short for long-range inter-building links.

How to use

Before installation, inspect the connectors for dust or debris and clean them using appropriate optical cleaning tools if necessary. Carefully route the cable along designated pathways, avoiding sharp bends or excessive pulling force that could damage the internal fibers. Align the SC connectors with the corresponding ports on your networking hardware and push until they click into place. Secure the ST connectors by aligning the pins and twisting the locking barrel until fully engaged. Ensure that the bend radius remains within safe limits during and after installation to maintain optimal network performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking hardware features both SC and ST ports
• Check if the 25-meter length matches the required distance between your devices
• Confirm whether your installation environment requires low smoke zero halogen cable ratings
• Determine if multi-mode OM4 specifications meet your current and future bandwidth needs

Usage recommendations: Handle the fiber optic cable with care during installation, avoiding tight bends and heavy mechanical stress to prevent internal fiber damage. Always keep protective dust caps on the connectors until the moment of actual connection to maintain signal purity.
