Fiber jumpers classification

Fiber jumpers by different transmission media can be divided into common silicon-based optical fiber single-mode, multimode jumpers, as well as other issues such as the fiber jumper with plastic transmission medium; by connector structure can be divided into: FC jumper, SC jumper, ST jumper, LC jumpers, MTRJ jumper, MPO jumper, MU jumper, SMA jumper, FDDI jumper, E2000 jumper, DIN4 jumper, D4 jumpers so a variety of form. The more common fiber jumper can be divided into FC-FC, FC-SC, FC-LC, FC-ST, SC-SC, SC-ST and the like.

Single-mode Fiber: General fiber jumper with yellow connector and protective sleeve blue, longer transmission distance.

Multi-mode Fiber: General fiber jumpers in orange, and some in gray, connector and protective sleeve beige or black, the transmission distance is shorter.

Fiber jumper features

1. Low insertion loss
2. The good reproducibility
3. The larger the return loss
4. A good mutual insert performance
5. The good temperature stability
6. good tensile properties
