Network Cable Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OM3 50/125 µm LC/LC aqua 1.0 m

The Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OM3 50/125 µm LC/LC aqua 1.0 m is a multimode fiber patch cord engineered for high-speed short-reach network connections. With OM3 graded 50/125 µm glass fibers and LC duplex connectors at both ends, this 1.0 m cable supports bandwidth-demanding applications in data centers, server rooms and enterprise network racks. The aqua jacket provides standard OM3 color coding for quick identification and consistent cable management.

Advantages

This LC/LC OM3 duplex cable offers low insertion loss and stable optical performance for multimode environments. The compact LC connectors minimize port space usage and simplify dense patch panel installations. The OM3 fiber specification enables higher modal bandwidth and improved support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed multimode links over short distances. The aqua outer jacket improves visual organization and reduces the risk of connection errors during maintenance.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections within data centers and server rooms
• Patch panel to switch or transceiver interconnects
• Fiber optic network testing and short-distance multimode links
• Structured cabling in enterprise LANs and equipment racks

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC duplex
• Cable length: 1.0 m
• Jacket color: Aqua (OM3 standard)
• Number of fibers: 2 (duplex)
• Typical applications: Short-reach multimode links, 10GbE

How to use

Before installation, inspect connector endfaces for dust or debris and clean if necessary using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC adapter or transceiver port until it clicks, observing correct polarity for duplex links. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer's minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. For patching between panels and network devices, ensure both ends are securely latched and that cable runs are supported to prevent strain on connectors.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a dry, dust-free environment. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use, avoid tight bends and mechanical stress, and follow standard fiber-handling best practices to maintain low loss and reliable optical performance.
