C2G 1m LC-LC 10Gb 50/125 OM3 Duplex Multimode Fibre Optic Cable Aqua

The C2G 1m LC-LC 10Gb 50/125 OM3 Duplex Multimode Fibre Optic Cable in aqua is a reliable networking solution engineered for high-speed data transmission and enterprise telecommunications connectivity. Featuring dual LC connectors and an OM3 50/125 micrometre core, this fibre optic cable ensures optimal performance for demanding network environments. The construction incorporates a halogen-free LSZH PVC jacket, making it suitable for installations where safety and reduced smoke emission are prioritized. Designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications, this cable delivers the performance headroom required for modern optical networks.

Advantages

This multimode fibre optic cable provides robust support for high-speed data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s, ensuring efficient network communication. The inclusion of an LSZH jacket enhances safety by minimizing toxic and corrosive gas emissions in poorly ventilated areas. Additionally, the cable offers backward compatibility with existing 50/125 equipment, allowing seamless integration into current network infrastructures while supporting both LED and VCSEL laser light sources.

Suitable for

• Connecting 10GBase-SR and 10GBase-LRM transceivers
• Linking SFP+ and QSFP+ transceivers for 10 gigabit network connections
• High-speed data transmission in enterprise environments
• Telecommunications connectivity in areas requiring low smoke zero halogen cabling

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not designed for long-distance outdoor telecommunications runs or direct burial applications without proper conduit protection. It may also be incompatible with older single-mode network equipment that requires different core diameters and connector types.

How to use

Before installation, inspect the fibre optic connectors for dust or debris and clean them using appropriate optical cleaning tools if necessary. Align the LC connector carefully with the port on your transceiver or network device and push gently until a click is heard, ensuring a secure connection. Route the cable carefully without exceeding the manufacturer's recommended bend radius to prevent signal degradation or physical damage to the glass fibres.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking hardware utilizes LC type interfaces
• Confirm the required cable length matches the 1-metre specification
• Check if your installation environment mandates halogen-free LSZH cabling
• Ensure compatibility with your existing 50/125 OM3 optical transceivers

Always maintain proper handling practices for fibre optic cables, avoiding sharp bends, excessive tension, and direct eye exposure to active laser light sources.
