What are Orange Fiber Optic Cables?

An orange fiber optic cable jacket indicates that the cord is a multimode OM1 or OM2 cable. Cables.com offers a wide variety of ready-made fiber optic cables and fiber optic patch cables, available in a variety of lengths and for customization as needed. 

As mentioned in our last blog, one of the most important things to learn about fiber optic cables is that they’re color-coded to identify their purpose. For example: an orange cable jacket indicates that the cord is an OM1 or OM2 cable, while yellow identifies a cable as OS1, or Singlemode. Previously, we discussed aqua fiber optic cables and their uses. This time we're going to take a look at orange cables. 

The Fiber Optic Association tells us that fiber optic cables with orange jackets are multimode 50/125 (OM2) or multimode 62.5/125 (OM1) fiber cables. Whether you're looking for yellow OS1 cables or the more common multimode cables, Cables.com offers a wide variety of ready-made fiber optic cables and fiber optic patch cables, available in a variety of lengths and for customization as needed.
