EFB Elektronik DJP-LCLCOM4-UNI-1 OM4 LC-LC Fibre Optic Patch Cable 1 m

The EFB Elektronik OM4 LC-LC fibre optic patch cable is a high-performance duplex solution designed for reliable data transmission in professional networking environments. This cable features a specialized LC Uniboot design with an extended unlock latch, which simplifies access and removal in high-density patch panels. The duplex connector allows for easy adjustment of polarity and coding to meet specific application requirements, ensuring flexibility in complex network setups.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this patch cable is its space-saving Uniboot design, which significantly improves cable management in crowded data center environments. The extended latch mechanism allows for quick and effortless disconnection without the need for additional tools, even in tight spaces. Furthermore, the ability to reconfigure the polarity of the connector on-site provides versatility, allowing the cable to adapt to various network topologies and installation needs.

Suitable for

• High-density data center environments
• Professional telecommunications infrastructure
• Enterprise network cabling
• High-speed data transmission applications

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for outdoor use or environments exposed to extreme moisture, chemicals, or direct sunlight, as the outer jacket is not rated for harsh external conditions. It is also not suitable for applications requiring standard connectors if the specific Uniboot latch mechanism interferes with existing non-standard hardware layouts.

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC Duplex
• Fiber category: OM4
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Design: Uniboot with extended unlock latch
• Polarity: Field-adjustable

How to use

To install the cable, insert the LC connectors into the corresponding ports on your networking equipment or patch panel until a click is heard. To remove the cable, use the extended unlock latch to disengage the connector from the port. If you need to change the polarity, follow the manufacturer's instructions to carefully swap the connector housing positions to match your network configuration requirements.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your equipment supports LC duplex connections.
• Ensure the 1-meter length is sufficient for your specific rack or device layout.
• Confirm that your network infrastructure utilizes OM4 multimode fiber standards.

Usage recommendations: Always ensure the fiber optic end-faces are clean and free of dust before connection to maintain optimal signal integrity and prevent permanent damage to the transceivers.
