Why choose it

Engineered for high-performance networks, this cable delivers consistent 10Gbps throughput over short to medium distances. The OM3 fiber is optimized for 850nm VCSEL lasers, ensuring compatibility with modern switches and transceivers. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and corrosive gases in the event of fire, making it ideal for enclosed spaces. Each connector is factory terminated and tested to meet strict optical specifications, guaranteeing reliable performance out of the box.

Ideal use cases

• Data center interconnects between switches, servers, and storage
• Enterprise LAN backbone connections
• Storage area networks (SAN) requiring high bandwidth
• Telecommunications rooms and campus cabling

Good to know

This cable is duplex, meaning it contains two fibers for simultaneous transmit and receive. The E2000 connector features a protective spring-loaded shutter, while the ST connector uses a bayonet twist-lock for secure mating. The aqua color is standard for OM3 multimode fiber, allowing easy identification in dense cabling environments. Always inspect and clean connectors before installation to maintain optimal performance.
