The 8ware fibre range explained

What these cables are

Each 8ware lead is an LC to LC duplex patch cable with UPC-polished connectors on OS2 single-mode, dual-core 9/125 µm fibre. The cable is armoured for extra protection and has a low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) outer jacket.

8ware specification card

Insertion loss 0.3 dB or less, return loss 50 dB or more, rated for 1000 or more mating cycles, and listed for 100 Mb, 1000 Mb and 10000 Mb transmission. Lengths: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 20 m.

Why three colours?

Black, white and yellow versions of the same lead make it easy to colour-code links in a rack: for example by network, by customer or by uplink and downlink, so cables can be traced at a glance.
