Optimised for data centres environments

LANmark-OF Slimflex patch cords have a very small bend radius of 7.5 mm due to the use of advanced sheathing material and GIGAliteFLEX bend insensitive fibre.
 

The small bend radius of the patch cord is beneficial in high density patching areas where a lot of bends are common. There is a high risk that the larger bend radius (40 mm) of traditional patch cords is not maintained resulting in high attenuation and loss of transmission.
 

The round design of the Slimflex patch cord results in a small bend radius in any direction. Traditional patch cords based on a zipcord design have a bend radius that is dependent on the orientation.

The advanced sheathing material allows a very flexible patch cord without any memory or kink effect.

The advanced sheathing material has higher resistance to abrasion and cutting compared to traditional LSZH material. This results in reduced sheath damage when pinched between doors or around sharp bends.

With the round design of the patch cable the area required for the patch cord has also been reduced by 30 % resulting in space savings and reduced disturbance of the airflow for cooling.

For the support of the advanced high speed Ethernet protocols with stringent power budgets the Slimflex patch cord features a low loss performance of 0.3 dB. This increases the headroom in the channel and reduces the risk of down time. 

The polarity of the Slimflex patch cord can be changed by opening the uniboot connector on one side and change the position of the 2 LC connectors. A black and red plastic square have been attached to the left and the right connector for identification. For standard optical crossed patch cord the black square is always on the same side on both ends of the patch cords. After switching the connectors on one side the patch cord becomes optical straight and can be used for some rare legacy applications that have a non-standard polarity.

 

 

Characteristics

  • Patch cord cable is according to IEC 60794-2-50 
  • Maximum insertion loss according to IEC 61300-3-4: 0.3 dB
  • Typical insertion loss: 0.15 dB
  • GIGAliteFLEX bend insensitive fibre

 

 

 Guarantees and installation
Nexans LANmark-OF optical fibre patch cords have been designed for indoor applications in support of high speed protocols.

Details on the supported distances can be found in the LANmark-OF warranty modules.
 

Typical installation environments are:

  • Cabinets to connect patch panels to active equipment.
  • Cross connects in data centres.
  • Suitable for use in the work area to connect the workstation to the wall outlet (Fibre To The Desk).

 

Design
Nexans LANmark-OF patchcords designed according to the "Cross-Over" wiring principle to improve field installation (A1-B2, B1-A2). This complies to the requirements of IEC 11801 and EN 50174-1:2009.
