Frequently Asked Questions
What is OM1 fiber optic cable used for?
OM1 multimode fiber is commonly used for short to medium distance network connections in data centers, server rooms, and campus networks. It supports legacy 100BASE-FX and modern Gigabit Ethernet applications, making it ideal for enterprise infrastructure upgrades and backbone connectivity.
Can I use ST24 connectors with existing network equipment?
ST24 connectors are standard in many enterprise environments. Verify your network switches, patch panels, and equipment support ST24 termination before ordering. This pre-terminated fiber optic cable ensures compatibility with ST24-equipped infrastructure.
Is OFNP-rated cable required for indoor installations?
Yes, OFNP (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Plenum) rating is required by building codes for cables running through plenum spaces (air handling areas). This fire-rated indoor fiber cable meets safety standards for protected building environments and data center installations.
What is the maximum transmission distance for OM1 cable?
OM1 supports up to 2 km for 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet and longer distances for slower protocols. For your specific network requirements, consult your equipment manufacturer's specifications to ensure optimal performance over 250 FT runs.
