Fiber jumpers, in simple terms, are the carriers for transmitting optical signals. They are used for jumper connections in data centers, fiber entry into buildings, and fiber-to-the-home installations. They come in various lengths, ranging from short ones at 1 meter to longer ones that can stretch to hundreds of meters or even kilometers.
When installing and using fiber jumpers, it's important to note:
01
The optical modules at both ends of the fiber jumper must have matching transmit and receive wavelengths. In other words, the fiber jumper's ends must be connected to optical modules with the same wavelength. A simple way to distinguish them is by matching the colors of the optical modules. Generally, short-wave optical modules use multimode fibers (orange-colored fibers), while long-wave optical modules use single-mode fibers (yellow-colored fibers), ensuring the accuracy of data transmission.
02
Before use, the ceramic ferrules and ferrule end faces of the fiber jumper must be cleaned with alcohol and lint-free wipes.
03
When installing fiber optics, insert and remove them gently; excessive force can cause the fiber optic ferrule to shift, thereby affecting the quality of optical communication.
04
After use, it is essential to protect fiber optic connectors with protective sleeves to prevent dust and oil contamination, which can damage the fiber optic coupling.

06
Do not stare directly at the fiber optic endface when transmitting laser signals.
07
If the fiber optic connectors get dirty, you can clean them with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol; otherwise, it may affect the communication quality.
08
Ensure usage within the operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C and relative humidity range of 5% to 90%.
09
When damage occurs due to human factors or other uncontrollable factors, damaged fiber jumpers should be replaced promptly.
10
Before installation, carefully read the instruction manual and perform installation and debugging under the guidance of the manufacturer's or dealer's engineers.
