Megladon's Mode Conditioning Patch Cords are designed to allow for longwave (1310nm) Gigabit Ethernet applications to function over MM fiber. When Gigabit transceivers launch directly into MM fiber, multiple modes (light pathways) are utilized that do not always have the same transmission length or characteristics, causing Differential Mode Delay (DMD). Mode conditioning cables prevent this from occurring by allowing the transceiver to launch directly into a SM fiber that offset spliced in the MM fiber of choice, allowing for a controlled launch into the MM fiber.
CORE BENEFITS
Required where Gigabit equipment is used with legacy MM cable
Allows Gigabit transceivers to launch into MM glass
Provides solution to Differential Mode Delay (DMD) issues
PRODUCT DETAILS
Can be built with 62.5um or 50um MM fiber, coupled to 9/125um SM Fiber
Available with SC, LC, ST, and FC connector types
Built according to IEEE Std. 802.3
