SC-SC Multimode OM1 Ultra Fiber Cabler
The iFiber Optix SC to SC Multimode OM1 Ultra Fiber Cable is engineered to deliver high-quality, reliable connectivity for short-distance data transmission in local area networks, data centers, and enterprise networks — utilizing 62.5/125µm multimode optical fiber in the industry-standard SC duplex configuration.
The SC (Subscriber Connector) push-pull design on both ends ensures secure, stable connections that resist accidental disconnection — making this cable a dependable choice for telecom closets, server rooms, and campus environments where consistent performance and ease of patching are equally important.
SC to SC Multimode OM1 Ultra Fiber Cable
Our SC to SC Multimode OM1 Ultra Fiber Cable utilizes 62.5/125µm multimode optical fiber — a standard widely adopted in multimode cabling infrastructure. The 62.5µm core diameter is optimized for short-distance data transmission, while the duplex SC configuration supports full two-way communication between connected devices.
Built with premium-grade fiber, robust jacketing materials, and SC connectors on both ends, these cables provide efficient, reliable performance in diverse networking environments where the SC interface is the established standard.

Key Features
- Premium 62.5/125µm Construction Built with premium-grade 62.5/125µm multimode fiber — a widely deployed standard in existing LAN, telecom, and campus infrastructure — ensuring efficient data transmission over short to medium distances with consistent signal integrity.
- Secure SC Push-Pull Connections SC connectors on both ends feature a push-pull locking mechanism that snaps securely into place and releases cleanly with a single motion — minimizing accidental disconnections in active patching environments and reducing maintenance time versus threaded connectors.
- Duplex Two-Way Communication Duplex configuration supports simultaneous two-way data transmission — enabling full-duplex Ethernet links between switches, servers, storage systems, and other network equipment without requiring separate cables per direction.
- Low Insertion Loss SC connectors deliver ≤ 0.3 dB insertion loss (0.2 dB typical) and ≥ 20 dB return loss — ensuring strong, stable signal transmission across all connections in the OM1 multimode channel.
- Durable Robust Construction Robust OFNR-rated PVC jacketing withstands environmental challenges including temperature extremes from -40°C to +85°C and repeated physical handling — designed for reliable, long-lasting performance rated for 500+ mating cycles.
- Industry Standards Compliance Manufactured to meet or exceed industry performance standards for OM1 multimode fiber — ensuring compatibility with existing network components and straightforward integration into current and future infrastructure.
Ideal Applications
SC to SC Multimode OM1 cables are deployed across a wide range of networking environments where the SC interface is the established standard and short-range multimode performance is required.
Data Centers
Facilitates high-density connections between servers, storage systems, and networking equipment — optimizing space utilization and supporting reliable performance across structured cabling and patch panel environments.
Enterprise Networks
Provides robust connectivity across enterprise networking environments — supporting seamless data flow between switches, routers, and key network devices across departments and floors.
Telecommunications
Supports reliable connections in telecom central offices and distribution frames — providing consistent, high-quality signal transmission between network nodes in high-use patching environments.
Campus Networks
Ideal for connecting multiple buildings within a campus environment — ensuring efficient data communication across facilities where short-range OM1 fiber performance is sufficient and SC is the installed interface.
Local Area Networks
A cost-effective backbone for office LANs — connecting switches, routers, and servers over short distances where SC ports are standard and upgrading to smaller form-factor connectors is not required.
Government & Regulated Facilities
RoHS-compliant construction and GSA contract availability make SC-SC OM1 cables a straightforward specification for government office networks, campus infrastructure, and regulated facility cabling projects.
How to Configure Your SC-SC OM1 Assembly
Four decisions define your SC-SC OM1 assembly — use this guide to arrive at the right configuration for your deployment.
Confirm Distance & Bandwidth
OM1 (62.5µm) supports 1 Gbps up to approximately 275–550 meters depending on transceiver type. If your network requires 10G or longer distances, OM3/OM4 multimode or OS2 singlemode are the appropriate upgrades — contact us to discuss your specific bandwidth and distance requirements.
Select Cable Length
Available in standard lengths from 0.5m to 15m and custom lengths for special routing. SC connectors have a larger body than LC — account for the extra depth when measuring patch panel-to-equipment runs to ensure clean cable management without excess slack.
Choose Jacket Type
OFNR (riser-rated PVC) for standard equipment rooms and data center environments. Plenum (OFNP) for air-handling spaces and above-ceiling runs. LSZH for facilities with halogen restrictions or European compliance requirements. All jacket types available in the same 2.0mm cable diameter.
SC vs. LC for New Deployments
SC remains the correct choice when matching existing SC-based infrastructure or when equipment specifies SC interfaces. For new high-density builds where space efficiency is the priority, LC connectors offer a smaller footprint and higher port density per panel — contact us to compare options for your specific deployment.
