Fibre optic cable ELECTRALINE METZ CONNECT 151J1EOJO50E 5 m OM3 SC to LC I-V(ZN) H Aqua

ELECTRALINE METZ CONNECT 151J1EOJO50E is a 5 m OM3 multimode fibre optic patch cable designed for high-speed data links and short-reach connections. The cable features a full-duplex configuration with an SC connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, a zipcord (figure-8) duplex construction with two tight-buffered fibres and aramid strain relief. The halogen-free, flame-retardant jacket in aqua colour and a bending-resistant, laser-optimized OM3 50/125 µm core make this cable suitable for use in data centres, network racks and equipment interconnects.

Advantages

The cable uses laser-optimized OM3 multimode fibre that provides improved bandwidth and reduced modal dispersion for short-range high-speed transmissions. Its I-V(ZN) H halogen-free, low-smoke flame-retardant sheath enhances safety in confined spaces, while the zipcord duplex design simplifies routing and polarity handling. The assembly is 100% tested to ensure consistent optical performance and reliable connectivity.

Suitable for

• Short-reach multimode links in data centres and server rooms
• InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet connections up to OM3 distance limits
• Patch panels, switches and transceiver module interconnects
• Internal cabling where halogen-free, low-smoke materials are required

How to use

Inspect connectors and fibre ends for contamination before installation and clean if necessary. Route the 5 m patch cable between equipment ports, ensuring no sharp bends beyond the cable's bend radius and avoiding excessive tension on the zipcord. Insert the SC connector into the corresponding SC adapter or port and the LC connector into the corresponding LC adapter or transceiver until a secure click is felt. Verify link status on connected devices and perform optical tests if required to confirm signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable to avoid tight coils and kinks; maintain bend radius and avoid pulling on the connector body. Use with OM3-compatible transceivers and active equipment to achieve expected performance. For permanent links or outside plant installations, select a cable type rated for those environments; this product is intended for indoor structured cabling and equipment interconnects.
