Opti-Core® Fiber Optic Patch Cords and Pigtails
provide interconnect and cross-connect of
applications over installations in entrance facilities,
telecommunications rooms, data centers and at
the desk. They support network applications to
interconnect pre-terminated cassettes in main
distribution, horizontal distribution and equipment
distribution areas. These riser (OFNR) and plenum
(OFNP) rated patch cords and pigtails support
installations that require these flame ratings in
specific environments.
Opti-Core® Fiber Optic Patch Cords and Pigtails
are available in OM4, OM3 fiber or OM2, OM1 or
OS1/OS2. fiber types to meet the demands of
Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high
speed Fibre Channel systems while maintaining
compatibility with Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, FDDI and
ATM. If application requires low smoke
zero halogen (LSZH) rated fiber optic patch
cords, reference Opti-Core® Fibre Optic Patch
Cords – Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH).
^Substitute for fiber type:
Z = OM4 – 10Gig™ 50/125µm
ZO = Optimized OM4 – 10Gig 50/125µm
X = OM3 – 10Gig™ 50/125µm
XO = Optimized OM3 – 10Gig 50/125µm
5 (OM2 – 50/125µm), 6 (OM1 – 62.5/125µm) and
9 (OS1/OS2 – 9/125µm). MT-RJ patch cords are only
available in OM1 or OM2 fiber.
‡Substitute for length in meters: Patch cords –
1m – 10m, 15m, 20m, 25m or 30m; pigtails –
1m, 2m, or 3m. Contact Customer Service for other
available lengths.
**900µm buffered fiber pigtails are not flame rated;
jacketed pigtails listed are for riser
(OFNR) rated cable.
