ACT 3 metros LSZH Multimodo 50/125 OM3 Cable de conexión de fibra óptica dúplex con conectores LC

The ACT 3 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable with duplex LC connectors provides a standardized solution for short to medium-distance high-speed optical links. Constructed for indoor network environments, the cable uses OM3 multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding geometry and features duplex LC terminations to support full-duplex data transmission between switches, patch panels and transceivers. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in the event of a fire, making the cable suitable for installations in offices, data centers and public buildings where safety standards are a priority.

Advantages

This multimode OM3 cable delivers increased bandwidth for 10 Gbps and compatible multimode optical systems while maintaining backward compatibility with lower-speed multimode equipment. Duplex LC connectors provide compact, reliable mating in high-density panels and transceiver ports. The LSZH outer jacket offers enhanced safety characteristics compared with standard PVC jackets in enclosed spaces. The 3 meter length balances reach and manageability for typical rack-to-rack and equipment-to-patch panel connections.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting network switches, patch panels and transceivers within racks and cabinets
• Short-run backbone links in data centers and server rooms
• Office and enterprise horizontal cabling where fire safety is required
• Fiber optic test setups and lab environments requiring multimode OM3 performance

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM3 (50/125 µm)
• Connector type: Duplex LC to Duplex LC
• Length: 3 meters
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Mode: Full duplex data transmission
• Typical applications: 10 Gbps multimode links and compatible multimode systems

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for cleanliness before installation and, if needed, clean with an appropriate fiber-optic cleaning tool. Route the cable along cable management paths and avoid tight bends that exceed the minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. Insert the duplex LC connectors into matching LC ports on equipment, ensuring correct orientation and secure latch engagement. For best performance, minimize strain on the connectors and secure excess cable length using Velcro or cable ties in secondary loops rather than sharp bends.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a dry environment and avoid exposing the jacket to oils or chemical solvents. Maintain connector cleanliness by using protective dust caps when ports are not in use and perform endface inspection periodically. Select OM3-compliant transceivers and adhere to equipment manufacturer guidelines to achieve expected optical budget and link performance.
