Description

Black Box FOCMPM4-020M-STLC-BK Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Black Box FOCMPM4-020M-STLC-BK is a 20-meter duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding environments. It features ST connectors on one end and LC connectors on the other, facilitating connections between network devices with different port types. This cable is crucial for extending network reach beyond the limitations of copper cabling, particularly in industrial or large facility surveillance deployments where signal integrity over distance is paramount. The black jacket color helps it blend into typical IT infrastructure.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring ST (SC-type) and LC fiber optic ports. It is commonly used to connect network switches, media converters, and IP cameras that utilize these specific connector types. Specifically, it supports connections for devices within the Black Box product line that require ST to LC termination, as well as third-party equipment requiring this specific fiber interface. Ensure your connected devices have matching ST and LC ports for proper integration.

Installation Notes

Handle fiber optic cables with care to avoid damaging the delicate glass fibers. Avoid sharp bends (maintain a minimum bend radius of 20mm for multimode fiber) which can attenuate the signal. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion using appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools. The ST connector uses a bayonet-style locking mechanism, while the LC connector is a push-pull latching type.
