FAQs

What are the key specifications of the Tripp Lite N506-01M Fibre Channel Patch Cable?
The Tripp Lite N506-01M is a 1-meter (3.30 ft) multimode duplex fiber optic patch cable with SC/SC connectors. It features a 50/125 micron core/cladding diameter, orange plenum jacket, and is designed for high-speed data transmission. The cable includes two glass graded index fibers with a core diameter of 50±3 microns and cladding diameter of 125±2 microns.
What type of connectors does this fiber optic cable use?
This cable uses SC (Subscriber Connector) connectors on both ends. Specifically, it has 2x SC Network Male connectors on each end, making it an SC to SC configuration. The connectors feature beveled edges on the glass ends for easier insertion, and each connector undergoes insertion loss testing with typical performance of 0.2dB.
What is the bandwidth and attenuation performance of this cable?
The cable offers excellent bandwidth and attenuation characteristics: At 850NM, it provides 220 MHz-KM minimum bandwidth with maximum attenuation of 3.5DB/KM. At 1300NM, it delivers 600 MHz-KM minimum bandwidth with maximum attenuation of 1.0DB/KM. These specifications make it ideal for high-speed data transmission in Gigabit and 10Gbps networks.
Is this cable compatible with other fiber types?
Yes, this 50/125 micron multimode fiber cable is backward compatible with 62.5 micron fiber systems. It's optimized for Fibre Channel applications and provides built-in headroom for future applications. The cable supports both FDDI and OFNR standards, making it versatile for various network implementations.
What certifications and ratings does this cable have?
The Tripp Lite N506-01M is FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface) certified and OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) rated. These certifications ensure the cable meets industry standards for fiber optic communication and riser applications. The plenum jacket construction makes it suitable for installation in air handling spaces.
