Customized Length Mode Conditioning Patch Cord Cable LC SC FC ST Mix Singlemode/ Multimode

Mode conditioning patch cord is a duplex multimode cord that has a small length of single-mode fiber at the start of the transmission length. The basic principle behind the cord is that you launch your laser into the small section of single-mode fiber, then the other end of the single-mode fiber is coupled to multimode section of the cable with the core offset from the center of the multimode fiber.

This offset point creates a launch that is similar to typical multimode LED launches. By using an offset between the single-mode fiber and the multimode fiber, mode conditioning patch cords eliminate DMD and the resulting multiple signals allowing use of 1000BASE-LX over existing multimode fiber cable systems. Therefore, these mode conditioning patch cords allow customers an upgrade of their hardware technology without the costly upgrade of their fiber plant. Mode conditioning cables are duplex type, in the middle of the cable it is the key part, usually the 3 connectors of the duplex mode conditioning patch cord are multimode types, and the 4th connector is single mode
