ACT 1 meter Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 duplex fiber optic patch cable with LC and ST connectors LSZH jacket

The ACT 1 meter multimode 62.5/125 OM1 duplex fiber optic patch cable is engineered to deliver reliable and high-speed network connections for demanding data environments. Featuring a standard length of 1 meter, this orange fiber patch cable is equipped with precise LC and ST connectors to ensure seamless compatibility with existing network hardware. Each individual cable undergoes rigorous testing, including insertion loss and return loss reports, alongside a 100 percent end-face inspection to guarantee optimal optical performance. Constructed with laser precision cleaving and Grade A-m fiber with a UPC polish, it facilitates efficient and stable signal transmission. The cable features a low smoke zero halogen jacket, which enhances safety by minimizing toxic and corrosive gas emissions in the event of a fire, making it a dependable choice for modern telecommunications and data infrastructures.

Advantages

This fiber optic patch cable provides exceptional signal integrity and reliability thanks to its Grade A-m multimode fiber and UPC polish. Every individual cable comes with a dedicated test report for insertion loss and return loss, ensuring that it meets strict performance standards right out of the box. The inclusion of a 100 percent inspected end-face significantly reduces the risk of connection failures. Furthermore, the low smoke zero halogen jacket offers enhanced safety in enclosed environments, while the laser precision cleaving ensures clean and accurate light propagation across the 1-meter span.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches and patch panels in local area networks
• Telecommunications and data center environments requiring OM1 fiber
• Setups utilizing legacy or mixed equipment with LC and ST interfaces
• Short-range high-speed data transmission applications

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for long-distance installations that exceed the 1-meter length limitation. Additionally, it may not be compatible with network hardware that requires different connector types, such as SC or MTP interfaces, without the use of external adapters or conversion panels.

How to use

Inspect the connector end-faces for any dust or debris before installation. Remove the protective dust caps from the LC and ST connectors on the cable. Gently align the LC connector with the corresponding port on your network device until it clicks into place, and push the ST connector into its designated port, twisting the outer barrel to secure the bayonet locking mechanism. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius during routing to maintain signal quality and prevent physical damage to the fiber strand inside.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network equipment utilizes LC and ST ports
• Confirm that a 1-meter cable length is sufficient for your connection distance
• Check if your network infrastructure requires OM1 62.5/125 multimode specifications
• Assess safety regulations to ensure low smoke zero halogen jacketing meets your facility standards

For optimal network performance, always keep connector end-faces clean using approved fiber optic cleaning tools and avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling force during installation.
