Indoor Traceable Fiber Jumper Cables

The Indoor Traceable Fiber Jumper Cable is an effective solution for eliminating interconnect errors in dense interconnect environments. The traceable light identification will eliminate accidentally unplugging or moving the wrong jumper. Whether it is coming from the back of the equipment rack to the front or from one cross-connect panel to another, the Traceable Jumper Cable uses a positive light indication to quickly identify the opposite end of the assembly. The added value of eliminating the outages, due to incorrectly identifying jumpers and the time saved being able to quickly find the correct jumper, is important in today’s demanding market.

Product Details

The traceability of the jumper gives a value-add functionality for simple fiber patch cord jumpers. Having the ability to trace the other end of the assembly with an easy to find highly visible red LED eliminates the chance of accidentally unplugging or moving the wrong jumper. This is a must in high density environments like central offices, CATV head ends, and cellular sites, anywhere cable congestion can create a challenge when identifying and tracing patch cords.
