Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/LC InLine 88544P 50/125µm OM4 0.5m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/LC 50/125µm OM4 0.5m is a short-length multimode duplex fiber patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in network and server rack environments. Featuring LC connectors on both ends and a 50/125µm core/cladding diameter with OM4 performance grading, this 0.5 meter cable supports full duplex communication and is intended for use where low-loss, high-bandwidth multimode links are required over short distances.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable offers low insertion loss and consistent modal performance typical of OM4 multimode fiber, enabling reliable 10 Gigabit and higher short-reach links. The duplex LC/LC connector arrangement simplifies duplex signal routing and saves port space through compact LC terminations. The 0.5 m length reduces excess cable slack in dense patch panels and helps maintain tidy cable management in racks and equipment enclosures.

Suitable for

• Patch connections in data center racks and fiber distribution panels
• Short-reach multimode links for switches, transceivers and optical modules
• Server-to-switch fiber connections in enterprise and campus networks
• Laboratory testing and reference connections for fiber optic equipment

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC, duplex
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Polish/type: Factory-terminated multimode patch cable (typical UPC/PC or APC not applicable for multimode LC)
• Application: Short-reach, high-bandwidth multimode links

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for cleanliness before insertion and use appropriate fiber cleaning tools if contamination is present. Connect the LC connectors into the corresponding LC ports on transceivers, switches or patch panels ensuring correct orientation for duplex pairs. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. For permanent installations, secure the cable within the patch panel or cable management system to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Use this 0.5 m OM4 LC/LC duplex cable for short interconnects where reduced slack is important; keep connectors covered when not in use and follow standard fiber handling procedures to preserve signal quality and connector longevity.
