Equip LC/LC Fiber Optic Patch Cable, OM3, Full Duplex, 1.5m

The Equip LC/LC fiber optic patch cable is a high-performance OM3 multimode solution engineered for reliable data transmission in professional networking environments. With a 1.5-meter length and a full duplex configuration, this cable provides a stable and efficient connection for modern network infrastructure, ensuring high-speed data transfer with minimal signal loss.

Advantages

This fiber optic cable features high-quality ceramic ferrule connectors that ensure precise alignment and consistent signal integrity. The use of an OM3 multimode fiber core allows for high-bandwidth performance, supporting 10G Ethernet transmission rates effectively. Furthermore, the cable is encased in a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, which significantly improves safety in indoor environments by reducing toxic emissions in the event of a fire. The aqua-colored jacket allows for easy identification within complex cabling systems, simplifying maintenance and organization.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches and routers
• Linking servers in data centers
• Optical transceiver connections
• High-speed local area network (LAN) backbones
• Structured cabling systems

This cable is not suitable for long-distance outdoor installations or environments requiring single-mode fiber infrastructure. It is specifically designed for short-range multimode applications and will not function with equipment requiring different connector types or single-mode optical signals.

Key specifications

• Cable type: OM3 Multimode
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Core diameter: 50/125 µm
• Data transmission rate: Up to 10 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 1.5 meters
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Configuration: Full duplex
• Connector material: Ceramic ferrule
• Color: Aqua

To use this patch cable, simply insert the LC connectors into the corresponding ports on your networking hardware until you hear a click, ensuring a secure connection. Handle the cable with care, avoiding sharp bends or excessive tension, as fiber optic glass is sensitive to physical stress. Ensure that both the cable connectors and the equipment ports are clean and free of dust before installation to maintain optimal signal quality.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking equipment supports LC interface ports
• Ensure the OM3 multimode standard is compatible with your existing network infrastructure
• Check if the 1.5-meter length is sufficient for your specific cable routing needs
• Confirm that your environment requires LSZH-rated cabling for safety compliance

For the best performance, always maintain a minimum bend radius and avoid placing heavy objects on the cable. Regularly inspect the connectors for debris and use appropriate fiber cleaning tools if signal degradation is observed.
