Network Cable Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OM2 50/125 µm LC/ST orange 7.0 m

The Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OM2 50/125 µm LC/ST in orange is a multimode fiber patch lead designed for high-speed data transmission in structured networking environments. With LC connector on one end and ST connector on the other, and a 7.0 m length, this duplex cable supports short- to medium-range links commonly found in data centers, server rooms and telecommunications racks. The OM2 50/125 µm core/cladding specification provides predictable modal bandwidth for multimode systems and the bright orange jacket aids rapid visual identification during installation and maintenance.

Advantages

This duplex fiber patch cable combines standardized OM2 multimode fiber geometry with industry-common LC and ST connectors to offer stable optical performance and low insertion loss when mating with compatible transceivers and patch panels. The 7.0 m length gives flexibility for rack-to-rack or patch-panel-to-equipment connections without excessive slack. The cable jacket color improves cable management and reduces the time needed to trace connections in dense installations.

Suitable for

• Inter-rack connections in data centers and server rooms
• Patch panel to network switch links in telecommunications closets
• Short- to medium-distance multimode fiber links for enterprise networks
• Environment where clear visual cable identification is required

Key specifications

• Connector types: LC (one end) to ST (other end)
• Configuration: Duplex (two fibers)
• Length: 7.0 meters
• Jacket color: Orange for multimode identification
• Typical use: Patch cable for networking and telecommunications

How to use

Route the Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OM2 carefully to avoid tight bends and excessive tension; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. Clean the LC and ST connector end-faces before insertion using appropriate fiber cleaning tools to reduce insertion loss and back reflections. Plug the LC connector into the LC port and the ST connector into the ST adapter or transceiver until a secure connection is made. Label both ends if required for future identification and secure the cable in cable management trays or ties to prevent movement.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use this OM2 50/125 µm duplex cable within the supported multimode link distances for your equipment and ensure connectors and adapters are compatible with LC and ST terminations. Regularly inspect and clean connector end-faces, avoid repeated mating cycles beyond connector specifications, and store spare patch cables in protective sleeves to prevent contamination and physical damage.
