Know before you buy
Yes, this cable is riser-rated (OFNR), which means it meets the safety requirements for installation within walls and between floors in most commercial and residential buildings.
It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet, but only for distances up to 33 meters. For longer runs, you may need to consider a different fiber category.
OM1 refers to the fiber grade, which uses a 62.5-micron core. It is primarily designed for legacy 100 Megabit Ethernet applications and shorter-reach high-speed connections.
Yes, the connectors are built to be both pull-resistant and impact-resistant. They also feature a physical contact (PC) finish to ensure a stable, reliable signal connection.
This is a duplex cable, meaning it consists of two fiber strands bundled together. This design allows for simultaneous transmit and receive functions in a single cable assembly.
