ACT 5 metros LSZH Multimodo 50/125 OM3 Cable de conexión de fibra óptica dúplex con conectores LC

The ACT 5 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors provides a ready-made link for short- to medium-range high-speed networks. Constructed for multimode OM3 performance, it supports high bandwidth applications with low insertion loss and consistent signal integrity. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and halogen emissions in the event of fire, making this cable suitable for indoor pathways where safety and fire regulations are important. Duplex LC terminations enable full-duplex connections between switches, transceivers and active equipment in data centres and office racks.

Advantages

This multimode OM3 patch cable delivers low attenuation and stable multimode performance across common data rates. The duplex LC connectors ensure compact, high-density connections while providing reliable mating with LC ports on SFP/SFP+ and other transceiver modules. The LSZH outer jacket offers improved safety in enclosed spaces by limiting smoke and corrosive gases if exposed to fire. The pre-terminated 5 metre length balances flexibility and reach for typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-panel runs.

Suitable for

• Data centre uplinks and switch-to-switch connections

How to use

Connect each LC duplex plug into the corresponding LC duplex ports on your transceivers, switches or patch panels, ensuring correct polarity for transmit and receive channels. Route the cable along intended pathways avoiding sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius to prevent increased attenuation. Secure the cable with appropriate cable management accessories and patch panels to reduce mechanical stress and maintain connector integrity. For insertion into transceivers, align the latching mechanism until a click is felt to ensure a secure connection.

Recommendations

For optimal optical performance, keep connector end-faces clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools before termination or connection. Avoid exceeding the cable’s bend radius and protect connectors from dust with dust caps when not in use. Use LSZH-rated pathways in enclosed or high-occupancy areas to meet safety requirements and check compatibility with your transceiver modules (LC interface) for multimode OM3 operation.
