Black Box IOP08M3-ST24-ST24-C-1200 OM3 8-Strand Fiber Patch Cord
Overview
The Black Box IOP08M3-ST24-ST24-C-1200 is an 8-strand, OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cord designed for indoor structured cabling deployments. It features ST connectors on both ends, terminated with a black jacket, and measures 1.2 meters in length. This cable is critical for connecting network devices, such as fiber switches or transceivers, within a rack or between adjacent equipment, ensuring high-bandwidth data transmission for surveillance systems and data networks.
Compatibility
This patch cord is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard ST fiber optic ports. It is suitable for use with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications up to 300 meters and 40 Gigabit/100 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE/100GbE) applications up to 100 meters, provided the connected equipment supports OM3 fiber specifications. It integrates seamlessly into existing fiber optic cabling infrastructure.
Installation Notes
When installing, maintain a minimum bend radius of 1 inch (25.4 mm) for OM3 fiber to prevent signal loss or damage. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to avoid contamination, which can degrade performance. The 1.2-meter length is ideal for short-run connections within a single rack or between adjacent racks, minimizing cable slack and potential interference.
