Our mode conditioning patch cords are designed to eliminate DMD effects which can occur when a single mode signal is launched into a multimode fiber. Mode conditioning patch cords are especially suitable for applications where new Gigabit 1000 BASE-LX routers or switches are being deployed into existing multimode plants.

 Adapt to Gigabit Ethernet using existing multimode cable plant

 Simply plug the singlemode connector into the Transmit side of the 1000Base-LX equipment and the multimode connector into the receive side of the equipment

 Mode conditioning patch cords provide the overfill launch condition required by multimode cable plants

 Use mode conditioning patch cords in place of standard equipment-to-patch panel for 1000 Base-LX systems where multimode horizontal cable is used

 IEEE-802.3z compliant
