Fiber Optic Patch Cable Equip SC/SC OM3 30m

The Equip SC/SC Fiber Optic Patch Cable OM3, 30 meters long, is designed for high-speed data transmission with SC connectors on both ends and a 50 µm core diameter. It supports full-duplex communication and is intended for reliable connections between network devices in data centers, server rooms, or office environments. The cable is manufactured to meet insertion loss, return loss, and endface geometry standards to ensure consistent optical performance.

Advantages

The OM3 multimode construction and SC/SC connector pair deliver stable signal transmission over the 30 m length. High-quality materials and controlled endface geometry reduce insertion loss and return loss, providing predictable optical characteristics. The standardised SC connectors ensure easy mating and compatibility with common bulkheads and transceivers used in data center and LAN installations.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, servers and optical distribution frames in data centers
• Interconnecting equipment in server rooms and telecom racks
• LAN backbone and horizontal multimode links within buildings
• High-speed short-reach applications using OM3 multimode fiber

How to use

Install the patch cable by inserting each SC connector into the corresponding SC port on the devices or patch panel until it clicks into place. Ensure the connectors and port adapters are clean before mating to minimise insertion loss. Route the cable along cable trays or management paths, avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile strain, and secure the cable to prevent movement. For removal, press the SC connector latch and pull straight out without twisting.

Usage recommendations

Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before final installation, maintain bend radius greater than the manufacturer’s minimum (typically 7.5–10 mm for multimode patch cords), and use labelled patch panels or colour-coded cabling to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
