5m SC/ST 62.5-125 Mode-Conditioning Fiber Optic Patch Cable - Orange
Product Code: SV-27003a- Fully compliant with IEEE 802
- 3z application standards, this cable is used where high speed gigabit 1000Base-LX routers and switches are deployed into existing multimode plants
- The need for this patch cord is due to the single-mode launch nature of the -LX or long-wave (1300 nm) transceiver modules used for gigabit ethernet
- Launching a single-mode laser into the center of a multimode fiber can cause multiple signals to be generated that confuse the receiver at the other end of the fiber
- These multiple signals, caused by Differential Mode Delay (DMD) effects, severely limit the cable distance length for operating gigabit ethernet
- A mode-conditioning patch cord maskes these DMD effects by eliminating these multiple signals by allowing the single-mode launch to be offset away from the center of a multimode fiber
