Hubbell DFPCCSCSF5MM LGX Max Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Overview

The Hubbell DFPCCSCSF5MM is a 4-meter, duplex, multimode fiber optic patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission in enterprise and data center environments. Featuring CS connectors on both ends and rated for OM3/OM4 performance, this cord ensures reliable connectivity for network backbone infrastructure. Its plenum-rated jacket makes it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces, meeting stringent building codes for safety and fire resistance. This specific model, DFPCCSCSF5MM, uses aqua-colored jacketing to denote its multimode OM3/OM4 classification.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to connect devices equipped with standard CS fiber optic ports. It is compatible with a wide range of network equipment including switches, routers, transceivers, and patch panels that utilize CS connectors. The OM3/OM4 rating ensures optimal performance with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet (40/100GbE) up to 100 meters, making it suitable for demanding network uplinks and server connections.

Installation Notes

The plenum-rated jacket requires careful handling during installation to avoid damage, but allows for deployment in plenum spaces above ceilings or under floors where air circulates. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation. The duplex configuration means two fibers are used for simultaneous transmit and receive operations.
