Why is RPM 253 1610 so widely used in the communications industry?

RPM 253 1610 is a fiber optic patch cord designed for Ericsson communication equipment. It is mainly used in outdoor communication scenarios and has waterproof and dustproof properties. The following are its main uses and features:

  1. Main uses  
- Wireless base station connection: Applicable to base station equipment such as Ericsson RBS6601, used to connect RRU (Remote Radio Unit) and BBU (Baseband Unit).
- FTTA (Fiber to the Antenna) application**: In LTE and WiMAX base stations, it is used for high-speed fiber optic transmission between antennas and baseband equipment.
- Telecom network tower: Used for fiber optic connection of outdoor telecommunication infrastructure, supporting 4G, GSM, 3G and other networks.
- Field optical cable: Suitable for temporary or mobile communication deployment, such as military, emergency communication and other scenarios.

  2. Technical features  
- Single-mode fiber (SM): Supports long-distance, high-bandwidth transmission, suitable for 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths.
- LC (FullAXS) interface: Duplex LC connector is used, which supports fast plugging and unplugging and stable locking, suitable for outdoor environments.
- Waterproof and dustproof design: IP67 protection level, suitable for harsh weather conditions (such as rain, snow, high humidity).
- High mechanical strength: Kevlar reinforcement layer is used, with a tensile strength of 1000N, suitable for outdoor overhead or direct burial deployment.

  3. Applicable scenarios  
- Outdoor communications: such as telecommunications towers, CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) links, FTTP (Fiber to the Home), etc.
- Industrial-grade applications: Suitable for industrial communication networks that require high reliability.
- Compatibility: In addition to Ericsson equipment, it can also be used for other optical communication equipment that supports LC interface.

  4. Optional length  
- Provide a variety of length options, such as 10m, 50m, 100m, etc., to meet different deployment needs.
