The gear
About this gear
The longest of our Elfcam multimode drums: 200 m of OM3 duplex fibre, 50/125 µm, with LC/UPC plugs at both ends. A steel-tape armour layer under the black LSZH jacket gives crush and rodent resistance for runs along the ground, and 200 m still sits inside the 300 m reach of 10GBASE-SR on OM3.
Reach for it when the switch rack is far from the action: a separate broadcast compound, a stage across a festival site, or a camera platform at the other end of a venue. It needs multimode SX or SR optics at both ends; our Blackmagic SDI fibre converters use single-mode optics, so pair those with the Percon single-mode drum instead.

FAQ
Questions about this gear
Multimode 850 nm optics with LC duplex ports, such as 1000BASE-SX SFPs or 10GBASE-SR SFP+ modules. Both ends of the link must use the same type.
Not with our Blackmagic Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G units: they carry single-mode NovaStar SFPs, so pair those with the Percon single-mode drum. It does work with SDI or Ethernet converters fitted with multimode 850 nm optics at both ends.
The two fibres are marked A and B: one transmits, one receives. If the link stays dark, swap the pair at one end and make sure both SFPs are multimode.
Elfcam rates it for indoor and outdoor use, with steel-tape armour for crush and rodent resistance. Keep dust caps on unmated connectors.
