Cost effective solution
Verified Purchase
Setting up a 10Gb backbone at the house can be a bit confusing, but the SFP+ and fiber cables from 10Gtek have made it easy. I started using fiber to isolate sections of my home net so that nearby lightning strikes would not take out more than one piece of equipment. The first shipment of this patch cable arrived with the ends crushed and parts missing. I filed a return through Amazon and received the second cable two days later. My cable works perfectly. I know I don't need mode 4 for a 10Gb run, but the 10Gtek mode 4 was about the same price as some other mode 3 cables so I went with the higher capability cable. Who knows, I might someday upgrade to higher speed switches and need a better cable.
 
Works for me, should for you
Verified Purchase
I have several of these and need 10 more so if they last , as the previous ones have I will buy more. Could be cheaper as the materials are cheap as heck individually and touch labor is not happening as they can be made with a machine and jigs....
Works with intel, 10g, ubiquiti, chelsio, solarflare fs.com
 
Work well with my Ubiquiti fiber switch
Verified Purchase
Bought these patch cables to connect my patch panel to my Ubiquiti fiber switch with Finistar SFP+ transceivers. No problems with the cables, just wish they made them in 0.5m length.
 
good quality and fair price
Verified Purchase
been using the 0.5m patch cables with my finisar modules.
seems to be working fine. build quality feels good.
 
seems like any other fiber cable
Verified Purchase
I've used fiber cables for many years. These seem no different than any others. I only know that they work, but have no way of measuring specs or verifying speeds.

i would buy again.
 
Good value
Verified Purchase
Connectors seemed well made during install. Clip was a little tough to remove in order to reverse orientation for cross patch, but this is more of a feature than a bug. Clip did not break like older cheap options.

Color matched and length was as advertised.

Good for a commercial install. Would order again.
 
Great fiber patch cable
Verified Purchase
Added this fiber patch line to increase throughout and add redundancy to my server access in my network environment. Works great with my Ubiquiti SFP+ adapter to connect to my 10gbe switch.
 
Solid and they just work.
Verified Purchase
It’s great to have a range of lengths to minimize the coils in the cabinets.
 
10G uplink from an Aruba switch to an OPNSense firewall

Custom Questions & answers

Question:I need moren than 15m
Answer:More than 15m fiber patch cords are available, please contact us through https://www.amazon.com/hz/help/contact/AE2OZG2NN3099?marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&sellerID=AE2OZG2NN3099&_encoding=UTF8&ref_=v_sp_contact_seller&.
 
Question:Is the 7.5mm minimum bend accurate? Everyone says you shouldn't use fiber in cable arms due to angle but this looks like it could go around a pencil
Answer:7.5 mm is the radius so 15mm is the diameter; close to the size of a finger. It seems to work after being wrapped around my finger, and I don't think the fiber would like a tighter turn than that. I measured my finger (not round) and it is about 16mm x 19mm.
 
Question:What kind of packaging do these come in to protect from them getting bent or crushed during shipping?
Answer:Mine came in a padded envelope. These things are very durable and I doubt they'll be damaged during shipping. You'd need to run them over with a bulldozer
 
Question:Do you sell pre-made crossovers as well, or is that something I will have to manually do? Thanks!
Answer:Just Move one site of connection. left to right or right to left.
 
Question:Would this fiber cable work with your "1.25g sfp 1000base-sx, 850nm mmf, up to 550 meters, compatible with ubiquiti uf-mm-1g"?
Answer:Yes, it will work with 10Gtek 1.25g sfp 1000base-sx, 850nm mmf, up to 550 meters, compatible with ubiquiti uf-mm-1g.
 
Question:Does om3 mpo-8mpo support dell switches like s6100-on ?
Answer:This OM3 multimode MPO-MPO patch cord is for QSFP+ transceivers application, so if your device support QSFP+ transceivers, it will work.
 
Question:Is there a fiber extension to an existing fiber cord? In other words female fiber to attach to existing male fiber with other extension end male.
Answer:Yes there is a female to female connector which will do what you want.
 
Question:Does it work with genuine intel e10gsfpsr transceivers? i guess "10gtek for intel e10gsfpsr" is not intel's.
Answer:Yes, it does. 10Gtek fiber patch cable is compatible with Intel E10GSFPSR 10Gb.
