3M Zipcord Fiber Optical VF45 Singlemode Cable

3M Zipcord Fiber Optical VF45 Singlemode Cable

The Volition VF-45 Socket and Patch Cords from 3M are the latest duplex, fiber optic interconnects for affordable, high bandwidth, fiber-to-the-desk networks. The VF-45 plug and socket work like an 8-pin modular jack, bringing the simplicity of the RJ-45 jack to optical fiber applications. VF-45 sockets can be field terminated in closet patch panels and in work area outlets for premises backbone and horizontal cabling applications. Field termination on duplex multimode and single-mode fiber using the Volition VF-45 Termination Kit takes less than two minutes, two fibers at a time! The mating VF-45 plugs, factory terminated onto patch cords, enables interconnection from socket-to-socket or from socket-to-transceiver devices. VF-45 patch cords are provided in a variety of lengths and are also available in hybrid ST* or SC configurations. All VF-45 patch cords are constructed with the innovative 3M "GGP" high-strength coated optical fiber, providing for durability and tight bend radius in desktop applications.
