LC/UPC to LC/UPC Armored Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable - 50/125µm Multimode OM4 - 3mm Aqua PVC Rated Jacket Jacket - 1 Meter in Total Length

This patch cable is armored for maximum strength and durability without sacrificing flexibility or size. It is crush and rodent resistant without being bulky, heavy, or messy. This means that it can be used in hazardous areas where more rugged cable is required. Armored fiber optic patch cables are made with similar outer diameter to standard patch cables, making them both space saving and strong. 

This armored fiber cable is a cost-effective solution that provides high-speed 10 Gigabit performance with Laser-Optimized Multimode Fiber (LOMMF). This high-quality multimode fiber optic patch cable is designed for ethernet applications. Each connection has great durability and is resistant to pulls, strains, and impacts during installation.

Multimode Patch Cables have a larger diameter core than singlemode, allowing multiple modes of light to propagate. Due to the larger core diameter more data can be transmitted, however far more light refraction and attenuation takes place. This means that they are used over far shorter distances than singlemode cables, due to signal degradation. They are most found in short distance data applications such as LANs (Local Area Networks)

Our cables are 100% optically inspected and tested for insertion loss before you receive them. A pull-proof jacket design surrounds the multimode, OM3, 50/125, 10Gb fiber which is immune to electrical interference.

Simplex vs. Duplex

Simplex communications are sent in one direction. Simplex communications include typical residential internet, where a single line is used for downloading data while another is used for uploading data. Devices that are connected via Duplex can send data in both directions simultaneously. A good example of a duplex connection is your everyday telephone line, which allows for communications from both parties at the same time.
