Fiber Optic Patch Cable Equip LC/ST OM4 10m

The Equip LC/ST Fiber Optic Patch Cable OM4, 10 m, is designed for high-speed duplex data transmission in structured cabling. Constructed from quality materials and featuring an OM4 multimode core (50 µm), this patch cable provides consistent optical performance for network links where low insertion loss and stable return loss are required. The cable has two LC connectors on one end and two ST connectors on the opposite end, offering compatibility between LC-terminated equipment and ST-terminated legacy devices.

Advantages

This Equip fiber optic patch cable offers low insertion loss and controlled endface geometry for reliable mating, and its OM4 multimode construction supports higher bandwidth and longer reach compared with lower-grade multimode fibers. The mixed LC-to-ST connector configuration enables convenient interconnection between different connector types without additional adapters, and the 10 m length suits intermediate cable runs in data centers, networking closets, or telecommunications rooms.

Suitable for

• Connecting LC-equipped transceivers or patch panels to ST-terminated devices
• Multimode network links in data centers and enterprise LANs
• Fiber patching between floors or within wiring closets where a 10 m reach is required

How to use

Inspect connectors and cable for visible damage before installation. Align and insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC port until it latches, and insert each ST connector into the matching ST socket, securing with the bayonet coupling. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for OM4 multimode fiber. Test the link after installation to verify insertion loss and return loss meet system requirements.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the fiber patch cable in protective packaging when not in use, keep connector endfaces clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools, and avoid excessive bending or tensile load to ensure long-term optical performance.
