Hubbell DFHPCCSCSF1MM Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Overview

The Hubbell DFHPCCSCSF1MM is a 1-meter, aqua-colored, plenum-rated duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and enterprise network installations. It features CS connectors on both ends, suitable for high-density fiber optic applications where space is a constraint. The OM3/OM4 multimode fiber specification supports high bandwidth and data rates over shorter distances, making it ideal for connecting network equipment within racks or between adjacent telecommunications rooms.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with any network devices, transceivers, or patch panels equipped with CS fiber optic connectors. Its OM3/OM4 multimode rating ensures compatibility with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet (40/100GbE) up to 100 meters, provided the connected equipment supports these standards. The plenum jacket rating is specifically designed for use in air-handling spaces (plenums) where fire safety codes mandate specific cable construction.

Installation Notes

Handle with care to avoid damaging the fiber strands or connectors. Ensure connectors are clean before mating. The plenum jacket offers superior fire resistance but may be less flexible than non-plenum alternatives. Always adhere to bend radius guidelines for OM3/OM4 fiber to prevent signal degradation; a minimum bend radius of 1 inch (25.4mm) is recommended.
