Summary: SmartFIBER Singlemode 9 - Connectors

ProAV cabling designed for commercial and industrial performance

Windy City Wire manufactures low-voltage SmartWire® cabling in the United States for professional audio-visual environments. Whether you are wiring conference rooms, training centers, performance spaces, worship venues, or enterprise campuses, our ProAV cabling helps integrators deliver clean audio, reliable control, and consistent endpoint connectivity from rack to room. As a B2B partner, we focus on products and solutions that streamline installation, standardize outcomes across projects, and support long-term system reliability.

Why SmartWire for ProAV

• Built for signal integrity: Consistent materials and tight manufacturing tolerances support low noise, dependable terminations, and repeatable results across large projects.
• Faster pulls, fewer reworks: SmartWire Glide Technology® is our cable lubrication applied during manufacturing. It reduces pull friction by up to 70% to help speed installations and minimize conductor stress.
• Flexible constructions: Options for balanced audio, speaker circuits, control signaling, and device power allow you to match cable to application without over-specifying.
• Jobsite identification: Standard and custom jacket and stripe color combinations help teams quickly identify runs, manage change orders, and maintain as-built consistency across sites. Contact our team for custom color requests.
• Made for the trade: US manufacturing, consistent availability, and application-focused constructions tailored to the way commercial AV is designed and installed.

Applications we support

• Balanced audio and line-level feeds for microphones, DSPs, and amplifiers
• Low-voltage loudspeaker circuits for distributed audio and paging
• Control and data for touch panels, sensors, relays, GPIO, IR, and RS‑485/RS‑232
• Endpoint power for AV peripherals, extenders, and signal processors within low-voltage limits
• Infrastructure tie-ins where a pro av cable must coexist with networked AV systems

Where copper ProAV and other media meet

Many enterprise AV systems blend copper runs to endpoints with fiber optic cable for backbones and patch cables at the rack. SmartWire low-voltage constructions cover the copper side of your design, supporting clean terminations, organized cable management, and dependable field performance from source to destination.

How we create value on your next project

• Consistency at scale: Repeatable electrical performance and uniform OD across reels help standardize stripping, termination, and dressing practices across multi-room deployments.
• Efficient installation: Reduced pull friction and construction options matched to use-case help crews work steadily with fewer callbacks.
• Clear identification: Jacket and stripe color options simplify zone, channel, and device labeling in complex systems.
• Single-source copper portfolio: From audio pairs to speaker and control cabling, SmartWire covers common ProAV copper runs so you can spec and buy with confidence.

SmartFIBER Singlemode 9 – Connectors for Professional AV

SmartFIBER Singlemode 9 connectors support the backbone of modern low‑voltage AV systems where long runs, signal integrity, and uptime are critical. For enterprise campuses, venues, and industrial facilities, singlemode fiber delivers low loss, high bandwidth performance that scales from today’s 4K workflows to tomorrow’s higher‑resolution, IP‑based media. When paired with quality fiber optic cable and well‑planned terminations, these connectors help integrators build reliable AV infrastructures that are easier to deploy, expand, and service.

Where Singlemode Fiber Connectors Fit in Pro AV Systems

• Video over IP and AV distribution – Connect media servers, network switches, decoders, and displays across buildings or campuses with low latency and high reliability. Ideal for 4K/8K content, LED walls, projection, and large matrix or multicast designs.
• Live events and venues – Support long‑distance camera feeds, stage runs, remote production, and control room links without electromagnetic interference or ground loop issues.
• Broadcast and production – Provide stable signal transport for contribution links, intercom, return video, and KVM extension between studios, edit suites, and machine rooms.
• Unified communications and conferencing – Tie together conference rooms, divisible spaces, and enterprise collaboration platforms with consistent performance across IDFs and MDFs.
• Digital signage networks – Feed high‑resolution content to distributed endpoints throughout campuses, retail floors, stadium concourses, and transportation hubs.
• Control rooms and command centers – Aggregate operator workstations, visualization walls, and redundant core switching using a clean, scalable fiber backbone.
• Security and life safety – Carry high‑resolution surveillance video and control signals over long distances with immunity to EMI in electrically noisy environments.
• Audio transport over IP – Support time‑sensitive audio networks across facilities where determinism, low jitter, and high availability are required.

Industries That Benefit

• Corporate and enterprise – Campus‑wide AV distribution, executive briefing centers, and hybrid collaboration spaces.
• Higher education and K‑12 – Lecture capture, distance learning, auditoriums, and stadium AV systems.
• Healthcare – Telemedicine, OR visualization, simulation labs, and secure networked video.
• Government and public safety – Emergency operations, council chambers, and surveillance backbones with strict uptime requirements.
• Hospitality and entertainment – Ballrooms, theaters, casinos, event centers, and back‑of‑house distribution.
• Transportation – Airports, rail, and transit hubs with extensive digital signage and control networks.
• Industrial and utilities – Process monitoring, plant‑wide PA/VA integration, and EMI‑immune media transport.
• Houses of worship – Multi‑building campuses, broadcast feeds, and overflow spaces requiring long fiber runs.

Why Singlemode 9 Connectors for Pro AV

• Distance – Support very long runs between buildings, arenas, and remote spaces without repeaters.
• Signal integrity – Low attenuation and immunity to EMI/RFI for dependable video and audio over challenging routes.
• Bandwidth headroom – Ready for high‑bitrate workflows including uncompressed or lightly compressed 4K/8K and high‑channel‑count audio.
• Scalability – Add endpoints and expand switching cores without re‑cabling copper backbones.
• Serviceability – Clean, standardized terminations make moves, adds, and changes straightforward at racks, patch panels, and wall plates.

Common Integration Points

• Backbone uplinks – MDF to IDF connections for AV‑over‑IP networks and control systems using fiber optic cable trunks.
• Equipment racks and patching – Use fiber patch cables to connect switches, encoders/decoders, and KVM gear to distribution frames for organized, testable paths.
• Room‑to‑room links – Extend video, audio, and control reliably between auditoriums, overflow rooms, and broadcast suites.
• Camera and stage runs – Long‑distance, interference‑free connections for production cameras, stage boxes, and temporary event tie‑lines.

Design Tips for AV Teams

1. Plan for density – Allocate adequate connector and patch panel space to support future endpoints, not just today’s requirements.
2. Segment by function – Separate media, control, and management paths to simplify troubleshooting and QoS.
3. Protect optical performance – Follow proper bend‑radius and handling practices; keep endfaces clean to maintain low loss.
4. Document pathways – Maintain clear labeling and pathway documentation so field techs can service racks quickly.
5. Test and certify – Power‑meter and light‑source testing helps confirm headroom for high‑bitrate video and audio transport.

How This Supports Your AV Workflow

• Faster deployment – Consistent connector options streamline field terminations and turn‑up across large projects.
• Fewer service calls – Stable optical links reduce intermittent issues common with long copper runs.
• Lifecycle value – A fiber‑first backbone outlives multiple generations of endpoint hardware and codec standards.

Whether you are building a new AV‑over‑IP core, upgrading distribution for a venue, or tying together remote facilities, SmartFIBER Singlemode 9 connectors and matching fiber optic cable runs give your team a dependable foundation. From rack‑to‑rack patching with fiber patch cables to long campus backbones, these components integrate cleanly with modern pro av cable infrastructures and help deliver consistent results across demanding commercial and industrial environments.
