Used for connecting between cables and active equipment, Nenco OM4 patch leads are manufactured from the highest quality connectors and cables. Patch leads are manufactured using 900um fibres surrounded by aramid yarns. Connectors are precision polished in the factory using advanced techniques to ensure a reliable, high quality termination every time.
Through a stringent manufacturing process, the patch leads have a maximum expected insertion loss that should not exceed 0.3dB and will typically be much lower than this. They are also subject to tension, vibration and impact tests to
ensure reliability.
