Hubbell DFHPCCSCSF3MM Plenum Rated Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Overview

This Hubbell DFHPCCSCSF3MM is a 3-meter, aqua-colored, duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems. It features CS connectors on both ends, terminating OM3/OM4 multimode fiber. The plenum-rated jacket ensures compliance with building codes for in-wall and ceiling installations, making it suitable for environments where fire safety is paramount, such as data centers, enterprise networks, and security surveillance backbones.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with any network equipment, transceivers, or patch panels utilizing CS-type fiber optic connectors. It is optimized for OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber specifications, supporting high-bandwidth applications like 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters (OM3) and 400/440 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters (OM4). Use this cord to connect network switches, servers, or fiber optic termination points within the same rack or between adjacent racks.

Installation Notes

Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation and potential damage. Avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cable, as this can impact performance. The plenum jacket offers superior fire resistance but is less flexible than riser-rated cable; plan your routing accordingly to avoid kinking.
