Cable de fibra óptica Helos 10 m OM3 SC/ST

The Helos 10m OM3 SC/ST fibre optic cable provides a 10-metre multimode connection with a 50 µm core diameter designed for high-speed, full-duplex data transmission. With OM3 grading, this cable supports enhanced bandwidth for short to medium distance links in modern networking environments. SC and ST connectors on the cable allow flexible integration into equipment that uses either connector type, enabling straightforward connection between switches, patch panels, media converters and other fibre devices.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable combines OM3 multimode performance with a 10 m length to cover common rack-to-rack and equipment-to-patch-panel runs. The 50 µm core supports industry-standard multimode transceivers and maintains signal integrity for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over the specified distance ranges. Dual-connector termination (SC and ST) increases compatibility with existing infrastructure and simplifies upgrades without requiring adapter changes.

Suitable for

• Data centre interconnects and server rack patching
• Network device connections where SC or ST interfaces are present
• High-speed LAN backbones and campus networking links
• Media converters and fibre optic transceiver testing

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM3 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm multimode
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: SC on one end, ST on the other end (singlemode/multimode-specific connectors)
• Transmission: Full duplex
• Typical applications: Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over multimode links

How to use

Identify the SC and ST connector ends and align each connector with the matching port on the network device or patch panel. Insert the SC connector until it clicks into the adapter or receptacle and insert the ST connector by aligning the bayonet-style mating key and twisting until it locks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce stress at connectors; follow standard fibre handling practices such as keeping connectors capped until installation and avoiding contamination. Once connected, verify link status and perform a basic continuity or light-level test to confirm signal transmission before placing the cable into regular service.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a dry, dust-free environment; clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools when required. Maintain minimum bend radius as specified by standard multimode fibre handling guidelines to preserve optical performance. For critical links, use certified testing equipment to confirm insertion loss and return loss meet the network design requirements.
