ACT 0,5 metros cable de conexión de fibra óptica LSZH multimodo 50/125 OM5 dúplex con conectores LC

The ACT OM5 Fiber Patch Cable 0.5m Duplex with LC connectors is a multimode 50/125 μm assembly designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth links. The cable uses OM5 fiber to support wideband multimode transmission and is terminated with duplex LC connectors for compact, high-density connections. The jacket is manufactured from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material to reduce smoke and hazardous gas emission in the event of fire, making the cable suitable for indoor installations where safety and reduced toxicity are required.

Advantages

This 0.5 meter patch cable offers full duplex communication and compact duplex LC terminations that save rack and panel space. The OM5 multimode core supports wideband multimode applications and enhanced bandwidth for short-distance high-speed links. The LSZH jacket provides improved fire-safety characteristics compared with standard PVC jackets, and the short length minimizes excess cabling and signal attenuation in point-to-point connections.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This OM5 multimode patch cable is intended for short-distance, multimode applications; it is not suitable for long-haul single-mode links or locations that require outdoor-rated or direct-burial cabling. Environments that demand extended reach or single-mode performance for high-distance transmission should use appropriate single-mode fiber assemblies.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the patch cable by aligning and inserting the duplex LC connectors into the corresponding LC ports on transceivers, patch panels, or network devices, ensuring the latch clicks into place. Use one fiber of the duplex pair for transmit and the other for receive to maintain full duplex communication. Avoid tight bends and compressive strain on the cable; follow standard minimum bend radius guidelines for multimode fiber to preserve optical performance. For neat cable management, route the 0.5 m cable within racks or between adjacent devices to minimise slack.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this short OM5 duplex LC patch cable for direct device-to-device links or panel-to-device connections within racks and cabinets. Keep bend radii gentle, secure connectors when not in use with dust caps, and label both ends for clear identification in high-density environments.
