How to Choose the Right LC to ST Multimode OM1 Fiber Cable for Your Network

When selecting the right fiber optic cable, consider the following:

• • • Distance and Bandwidth Requirements:
      OM1 fiber is ideal for short-range applications (up to 300 meters). If your network requires higher speeds or longer distances, consider OM3 or OM4 fibers.
    • Connector Compatibility:
      Ensure your network equipment supports LC and ST connectors, or plan to use adapters where needed.
    • Network Density:
      Use LC connectors for high-density installations in data centers, while ST connectors are suitable for legacy systems or networks requiring secure, twist-lock connections.
    • Environmental Conditions:
      For installations in harsh environments, choose cables with ruggedized jackets to protect against moisture, heat, or physical stress.
