Know before you buy
A simplex cable contains a single strand of fiber, meaning it is designed for one-way data transmission. It is ideal for applications like simple sensors or equipment that only requires a dedicated send or receive path.
LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen. This jacket material is designed to emit minimal smoke and no toxic fumes in the event of a fire, making it a safer choice for enclosed spaces and building code compliance.
Yes. Because this is a 9/125 micron Singlemode fiber, it is specifically engineered to carry high-bandwidth signals over long distances with very little signal loss.
Yes, these are industry-standard connectors. The LC connector is common for high-density switches, while the ST connector is a classic twist-lock style often found in legacy equipment and patch panels.
The cable features a round, stranded construction that offers a good balance of durability and flexibility. However, keep in mind that fiber optic cables have a minimum bend radius to prevent signal degradation, so avoid sharp kinks during installation.
