Multimode 10GbE Solution FC UPC OM3 SX 3.0mm 3M Fiber Patch Cord
Description:
When building a high-bandwidth network for a data center or enterprise backbone, the details matter. The FC UPC OM3 SX patch cord is a specific and powerful solution designed for short-range, high-speed data transmission. This combination of a robust connector and advanced fiber type delivers reliable performance where it counts. At Chengdu Focus Infra Materials Company, we engineer our fiber optic components to meet precise standards, ensuring your network infrastructure operates at peak efficiency.
To understand the value of this patch cord, let's decode its name:
FC UPC Connector: This refers to the connector type and its polish.
FC (Ferrule Connector): A threaded connector known for its strong, vibration-resistant, and stable connection. It's ideal for secure installations where a connection shouldn't be easily dislodged.
UPC (Ultra Physical Contact): The ferrule end-face is polished with a slight dome shape, resulting in very low insertion loss. It offers better performance than the older PC polish but has higher back reflection than APC. It is visually identified by its blue boot.
OM3 Fiber Type: This specifies the grade of the multimode fiber inside the cable.
OM3 is a laser-optimized 50/125 µm multimode fiber designed for use with 850nm VCSEL light sources.
Its key characteristic is a high Modal Bandwidth of 2000 MHz·km, which is what allows it to carry 10 Gigabit Ethernet data at high speeds over short distances.
SX Transceiver Compatibility: "SX" is a designation for a type of optical transceiver.
1000BASE-SX is for 1 Gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber.
More importantly, 10GBASE-SR (the 10 Gigabit standard for OM3) is the primary application. An OM3 patch cord is the perfect match for an SX/SR-type transceiver, enabling 10 Gbps speeds.
Chengdu Focus Infra Materials Company delivers reliability and performance you can count on:
Guaranteed OM3 Compliance: Our cables strictly adhere to OM3 standards, ensuring you get the full 300-meter reach for 10GBASE-SR.
Precision FC UPC Connectors: We use high-quality ceramic ferrules polished to exacting standards for consistently low insertion loss.
Durability: The robust FC connector body is built to withstand the rigors of data center environments.Rigorous Testing: Every patch cord is tested to ensure it meets or exceeds industry performance standards.
