For Nigerian deployments, this product should be evaluated as part of the complete network path, including its connectors, mapping and acceptance values. This OM2 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a MTRJ UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM2 glass and optically tested as a whole assembly. The duplex zipcord construction keeps the transmit and receive strands paired in one assembly for fast, error-free patching.

Legacy multimode for installed systems
OM1 and OM2 cabling remains in service in industrial controls, building automation and older campus networks. The completed assembly matches that plant: the 62.5/125 or 50/125 core mates correctly with the established infrastructure, avoiding the modal mismatch that mixing core sizes would create.
Matching the installed base
When a legacy link fails, the matching repair is a cord that matches the fitted fiber grade. Patching OM1 with OM3 introduces a core-size transition that adds unpredictable loss, which means keeping a small stock of the right legacy jumpers is cheaper than troubleshooting a mismatched one.
Length Options
Stock length choices cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), with made-to-order length available beyond the list. Specifying the measured route length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the connector interfaces.
Quality Control and Testing
Every cable assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The cable assembly ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result available on request.
Ordering and Factory Support
Refer to this configuration by connector pair, fiber mode and length at the request stage a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, labelling or project packing, send the requirement with the enquiry and the factory will establish the build before the build starts. For Nigerian orders, our team can check the requirement before coordinating manufacture and international delivery.
