Cavo duplex in fibra ottica ProXtend FO-SCSTOM1D-005 MM OM1 SC–ST UPC, 5 m

Duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable ProXtend FO-SCSTOM1D-005 OM1 SC–ST UPC, 5 m is a 5-meter duplex cable with an OM1 multimode core, terminated with an SC connector on one end and an ST UPC connector on the other. It is intended for short-range data transmission in local area networks, building premises wiring and audiovisual systems. The cable provides a straightforward connection between devices equipped with SC and ST ports and is designed to simplify installation and cable routing in patch panels, switches and media converters.

Advantages

This ProXtend OM1 duplex cable offers stable multimode transmission over short distances with low insertion loss due to UPC polishing on the ST connector and standard SC termination on the opposite end. The duplex construction allows simultaneous bi-directional data flow, and the 5 m length provides flexibility for patching in server rooms, communication cabinets and AV racks. The cable's connectors are compatible with common fiber ports, reducing the need for additional adaptors when linking SC and ST interfaces.

Suitable for

• Short-range fibre links in LAN environments
• Premises and office cabling between patch panels and active equipment
• Audiovisual and broadcasting setups requiring SC to ST connections
• Connections between switches, media converters and optical transceivers

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM1
• Configuration: Duplex (two fibers)
• Connector A: SC
• Connector B: ST UPC (Ultra Physical Contact)
• Length: 5 m
• Typical application range: Short-range LAN and premises cabling

How to use

Route the duplex fiber cable between the two devices to be connected, ensuring minimal bend radius and avoiding sharp kinks. Insert the SC connector into the SC port and the ST UPC connector into the ST port until each connector locks or seats correctly. Where used with patch panels or cable management, secure the cable to avoid strain on the terminations. Verify the optical link using an appropriate test instrument or by confirming device link indicators and network diagnostics.

Recommendations

Maintain the manufacturer's recommended minimum bend radius for OM1 multimode cable, protect connector endfaces from dust and contamination with dust caps when not connected, and perform periodic inspection and cleaning of connector endfaces to ensure consistent signal quality.
